Español, lengua mía y otros discursos
La lucidez crítica que caracteriza los discursos de Pablo Montoya reunidos en este libro solo es comparable con su fina factura poética. Pocos escritores colombianos tienen como Montoya la capacidad de desdoblarse en su rol de escritor para pensar con inteligencia los asuntos nucleares de su arte. Arte que tiene lugar en su lengua, el español, y en la tradición literaria; en el mundo y en una Colombia comprendida en su luz y oscuridad.
Estos cinco discursos han sido escritos y pronunciados en los dos últimos años, en eventos en los que Pablo Montoya ha recibido reconocimientos por su escritura. Sílaba Editores, al presentarlos en su conjunto, invita a los lectores a asistir a estas ceremonias en las que la palabra testifica y deslumbra con profundas reflexiones.
