Chilean Oscar Barrientos has described Bradasic Puerto Pilgrim in several of his works: The wind is a country that was shaped vessel remote town and the dictionary of the vanes and other stories port. The shipping city Anthology: Tales of Puerto Pilgrim, published by the Foundation Editorial The Dog and the Frog, is a compilation of stories revolving around this magical city, nostalgic and nonexistent.
This compilation of stories put us in Puerto Pilgrim "a coastal city located in the end of an island "and is" strewn with ghosts and stray feelings. "
in this compilation unit is the metaphor topic. In Puerto Pilgrim nothing is as it seems, all reality is passed through the filter of nostalgia for a writer who manages to see the beauty and discover the magic in routine despite their sorrows and disappointments. Any person, object and experience transmuted into a symbol, a significant word in that dictionary defines vanes Puerto Pilgrim.
In this city there is room for all: the authors get the characters in his plays, women unable to feed absurd and infinite love and there is a poet who lives with two shadows. The bars are more meetings and partings, corners and corridors absences parallel worlds. The liquor in abundance, as always, an excuse to avoid the deep solitude. The characters appropriate the longing and nostalgia of its territory and become losers and lost individuals, heirs of eternal melancholy that makes travel between the limits of reality and dream.
may be best left in the words of Barnett's definition of the city has created: "Puerto Pilgrim is a city built intertextual function of the word, perhaps appealing to the old and useless attempt to change reality by means of language. This city has elements that are related to the catastrophic nature Southern geography and is inhabited by beings so defeated as rare. I think Puerto Pilgrim widens in my imagination. Has a very port and melancholy, in the manner of the novels of Salvador Reyes and Francisco Coloane, but also issues that could well be called postmodern as an account of Calvin or PKDick.. "
Honestly, I spent a pleasant time reading these stories of Puerto Pilgrim. Although sometimes I was forced overuse of metaphors, is a different type of literature pleasantly surprised. I think it right that all the stories, although they were originally inserted in different works, maintain a similar and consistent atmosphere. I hope Pilgrim Puerto further widening in the imagination of Barrientos and continue giving us entertaining stories, melancholy and special city but still existent, infinitely real.
