's death a bourgeois

Two solid conceptual poems - and boxers Mariners (2003) and trophies Fragile (2007) - converted to writer and journalist Jerome Pimentel (Lima, 1978) in a major voices called poetic generation post 2000. Leaving the thematic and formal rigidities, Pimentel now gives us Death of a bourgeois (AUB, 2010), a collection of 25 poems very diverse, ranging from childhood memories to the metaphysical reflections.

What unifies these texts is that revolve around training and beliefs of a middle-class Lima, not migrants, but the former emerging bourgeoisie, now in decline (hence the title of the book.) Memories of Sacred Heart College, or the Miraflores streets "Ocharán / Ferre / Churches" in memory of a man today "no work / no future / no dreams / no prospects" and feels "Nostalgia for the absolute" "Do not know if I believe in God. / I atomic force / that unites us and gives way .... "

Pimentel said recently: "I do not know if the unit of assessment in poetry is the verse or poem ... but I do know is that it is the poetry collection." Thus, unlike his previous books, The Death of a bourgeois is more focused on the quality of the texts themselves that the whole structure. The result is a good collection of poems, most personal and autobiographical, showing other aspects of literary production Pimentel.
