Synopsis "Harakiri"

Lo de Bertoni contra todo presupuesto y contra toda lectura no es sólo muerte ni sólo enfermedad. Porque cuando uno grita, o quiere gritar y le falta el aire, asiste a su impotencia. Y no hace más que asistir a su propia y enorme impotencia, la que por suerte para nosotros quedó registrada en este libro. Es la perturbación de la carne cuesta abajo, la perturbación del descreimiento, es una cierta perturbación que nos asiste riendo para no romperlo todo a su paso, incluyendo nuestra vida y su frágil sistema de ilusorio equilibrio. Aquí no se salva como dice Blas de Otero ni Dios.

Claudio Bertoni (Santiago, 1946) is a Chilean poet, photographer, and visual artist whose work has left an indelible mark on contemporary literature. His poetry, confessional in tone and deeply human, explores themes such as desire, fragility, and memory with rawness and humor. Among his most notable books are El cansador intrabajable (1973), Sentado en la cuneta (1990), Ni yo (1996), Una carta (1999), Harakiri (2004), En qué quedamos (2007), and The Price of Love (2018). In 2023, he published Novela, a prose work that continues his exploration of the intimate and the everyday.

Bertoni has been recognized with the Guggenheim Fellowship (1993), the Best Literary Works Award for Ni yo (1997) and Harakiri (2005), and the National Humor Award (2010). His straightforward, unadorned style has influenced generations of readers and writers, establishing him as a key figure in Chilean poetry. He currently resides in Concón, Valparaíso Region, where he continues to create and challenge the boundaries between art and life.
