Dying is an art

poetic work Mariela Dreyfus (Lima, 1960) shows a interesting developments since the eighties eroticism Memory Elektra (1984), while participating in activities Kloaka group, to the extended meditation on the experience of pregnancy of Fish (2005). In that vein, Dreyfus tackles the other end of life in Dying is an art (Trams, 2010), poems which has been on all counts of the best of Peruvian literature last year.

In these 21 poems, death seems to haunt the author in all areas: through cultural references (the stories of writers suicide), the memories of deceased relatives (especially mothers), diseases of people its more intimate setting (the newborn baby in "Sip the Life"), and to situations routine (a visit to the dentist in "Ivory", the act of cooking in "The Eye"). The result is an overwhelming number of texts correctly linking narrative, lyrical and reflective.

contribute decisively to the final effect items such as picture of the angel of the cover (a typical funerary sculpture), the photos in sepia tone and from the Dreyfus family album, and their own handmade edition (this is a "book object" .) Dying is an art is a book of maturity, which confirms the quantum leap taken by the poetry of Mariela Dreyfus from Pez.
