About the Book

Benedetti seleccionó y preparó la edición de estos poemas a lo largo de sus últimos meses de vida.«Cuando la poesía abre sus puertas es como si cambiáramos de mundo.» Durante los dos últimos años de su vida, Mario Benedetti corrigió, reescribió y ordenó estos sesenta y dos poemas. Biografía para encontrarme nos invita a descubrir o reencontrarnos con la esencia literaria del escritor uruguayo, a través de su poesía más íntima y conmovedora. Sus versos conjuran el poder de un mar sobrecogedor, evocan la tímida luz de una madrugada incierta o dibujan el mapa de la melancolía universal. La selección de poemas, que el maestro uruguayo dejó lista para ser entregada a sus editores, recorre los motivos poéticos más significativos del escritor: soledad, nostalgia, muerte, amor, belleza, desarraigo... Benedetti en estado puro ENGLISH DESCRIPTION During the last two years of his life, Mario Benedetti revised, rewrote, and reorganized the seventy-two poems that make up this book. Biografía para encontrarme invites us to discover, or become reunited with, the literary essence of the Uruguayan author through his most intimate and moving poems. His verses conjure the awe inspiring power of the ocean, the timid light of an uncertain dawn, or paint the map of universal melancholy. The selection of poems the Uruguayan master left ready for his editors covers the writer's most significant poetic motifs: loneliness, nostalgia, death, love, beauty, uprooting... Pure Benedetti.
About the Author: Mario Benedetti (Uruguay, Paso de los Toros, 14 de septiembre de 1920 - Montevideo, 17 de mayo de 2009) se educó en un colegio alemán y se ganó la vida como taquígrafo, vendedor, cajero, contable, funcionario público y periodista. Fue autor de novelas, relatos, poesía, teatro y crítica literaria. Su obra se compone de un corpus de más de ochenta libros, y su talento ha sido reconocido en todo el mundo.

En 1953 apareció Quién de nosotros, su primera novela, pero fue el libro de cuentos Montevideanos (1959) el que supuso su consagración como narrador. Con su siguiente novela, La tregua (1960), Benedetti adquirió proyección internacional: la obra tuvo más de ciento cincuenta ediciones, fue traducida a diecinueve idiomas y llevada al cine, el teatro, la radio y la televisión. Por razones políticas, el autor abandonó su país en 1973, iniciando un largo exilio de doce años que lo llevó a residir en Argentina, Perú, Cuba y España, y que dio lugar a ese proceso posterior que a su retorno bautizó como «desexilio». Fue galardonado, entre otros, con el Premio Reina Sofía de Poesía, el Premio Iberoamericano José Martí y el Premio Internacional Menéndez Pelayo.
