Los poemas que conforman esta obra selecta est?n pensados como el legado esencial de Nicanor Parra.

El ?ltimo apaga la luz es una amplia y cuidada selecci?n de la obra de quien seg?n Harold Bloom (es incuestionablemente uno de los mejores poetas de Occidente). El libro abarca desde el inaugural Poemas y antipoemas (que se incluye ?ntegro) hasta los Discursos de sobremesa, pasando por Canciones rusas, Sermones y pr?dicas del Cristo de Elqui, Lear, Rey & Mendigo y Hojas de Parra (que por su centralidad en el proyecto antipo?tico tambi?n se incluye entero), m?s algunos poemas dispersos como Qu?date con tu Borges o El rap de la Sagrada Familia

Seleccionados por Mat?as Rivas, los poemas que conforman esta obra selecta est?n pensados como el legado esencial de Nicanor Parra, una gran puerta de entrada para quienes no conozcan cabalmente la antipoes?a y, a la vez, la mejor s?ntesis para quienes ya la admiran, la estudian o, simplemente, la leen con renovada passion.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

These selected poems make up what is thought of as the essential legacy of Nicanor Parra.

The Last One Out Shuts the Lights is a broad and carefully selected collection of the work by an author who according to Harold Bloom, is unquestionably one of the best poets of the Western hemisphere.

The book goes from his beginnings in Poemas y antipoemas / Poems and Antipoems which are included in their entirety, to Discursos de sobremesa / After-Dinner Declarations and Canciones rusas / Russian Songs, Sermones y pr?dicas del Cristo de Elqui / Sermons and Homilies of the Christ of Elqui, Lear, Rey & Mendigo / Lear, King & Beggar, and Hojas de Parra / Grape Leaves. Pages of Parra, also included in its entirety, among others.

Selected by Matias Rivas, these essential Nicanor Parra poems are a great gateway for those who aren't too familiar with antipoetry, and also are a perfect selection for those who already admire it, study it, or like to reread it with renewed passion.
