Η ανάσταση του παπαγάλου

Rate this book
Η "Ανάσταση του παπαγάλου" είναι μια μικρή ιστορία που πρωτοδημοσιεύτηκε από τον μεγάλο Ουρουγουανό συγγραφέα Εδουάρδο Γκαλεάνο στο βιβλίο του "Οι λέξεις ταξιδεύουν" (στα ελληνικά από τις Εκδόσεις Πάπυρος 2013). Με τον δικό του, μοναδικό τρόπο, να λέει πολλά με λίγα λόγια, ο Γκαλεάνο αφηγείται την ιστορία ενός παπαγάλου που πέφτει σε μια χύτρα και πεθαίνει, μα που ένας αγγειοπλάστης τον ανασταίνει, με υλικά το συναίσθημα, την αγάπη. Ο ταπεινός αγγειοπλάστης φτιάχνει εντέλει ένα πλάσμα πολύχρωμο, και η ιστορία του γίνεται ένας ύμνος στη ζωή, στην ανθρώπινη δημιουργικότητα, που με την απλότητα και την αμεσότητά του μαγεύει τους μικρούς και μεγάλους αναγνώστες.

Look, Historia de la resurrección del papagayo is the kind of book you start on the couch and finish on the floor because you got too wound up to sit still. Eduardo Galeano keeps the chapters short and mean, and the moment the main character finds the second set of keys in a drawer, I said "oh no" out loud to an empty room. The villain explains his whole plan near the end like a guy on a podcast, which kinda deflated me. Great for a rainy Saturday. Skip it if you hate when the bad guy monologues.

Finished Historia de la resurrección del papagayo on my lunch breaks over two weeks, and it made my dull workday feel a little more interesting. Eduardo Galeano writes short, punchy chapters that are easy to pick up and hard to put down. The ending fizzles, but for busy folks who read in bursts, it's a solid pick.

A mi me encantó este libro, las ilsutraciones están hechas con figuras de madera, está precioso.
Sólo que una de las figuras muestra los pechos de una mujer y esto puede ser un problema en ciertos espacios escolares o lo que sea, para mí no lo es.
Recomiendo mucho.

muito bonito sobre a interligação das coisas, como tudo reage a um acontecimento e a recriação tipo pinoquio. muito poético.
