Synopsis "Las Vocales Malditas (in Spanish)"

Las vocales malditas es el libro mas sorprendente de la Lengua Espanola. Un libro de culto. Vox PopuliLas vocales malditas es un verdadero tour de force: cada relato esta escrito con palabras que solo tienen la misma vocal. Los locos somos otro cosmos, por ejemplo, excluye todas las vocales salvo la o; y son asi, cinco relatos. Estos textos prueban el talento de su autor para un juego cargado: la arbitrariedad del juego formal solo es aparente. La vocal dominante resta del lenguaje su habla casual y la vuelve otra version de las cosas. Se trata de otra manera de nombrar dentro del mismo lenguaje, citando, en su fonetica arbitraria, un proposito obsesivo y sistematico, que asedia a los significados con su ironia y su burla. Asi, los significantes son la parte ligeramente perversa de la significacion; no solamente su via expresiva.Julio Ortega
