Synopsis "Cual Menguando (in Spanish)"

Este nuevo libro de Chantal Maillard, a caballo entre los géneros, funde poesía, prosa y teatro, insertándose en la mejor tradición de Samuel Beckett y sus piezas antológicas, su teatro o sus películas.
Despojado como los personajes de Beckett, adelgazado como los seres filiformes de Francis Ponge o los de Henri Michaux, Cual es, en esa estela, un personaje que la acompaña, que la contradice y se convierte en el reverso de quienes fuesen protagonistas de los poemas trágicos o las indagaciones metafísicas. Este libro inaugura un nuevo tono, una nueva conquista de Chantal Maillard.

Chantal Maillard (Brussels, 1951) has been living in Málaga since 1963 and, currently, also spends long periods in Barcelona. With a PhD in philosophy and a full professor of aesthetics and theory of the arts, she taught at the University of Málaga until 2001. She lived in Varanasi, where she specialized in Indian philosophy and religions. She is the author of Indian Diaries and Spindles, as well as numerous essays, including Against Art, the most recent. Considered "one of the most intense, honest, and radical poetic voices of the current scene" (M.L. Blanco, El País), as a poet she has published, among others, the volumes Poems to My Death (1994, Santa Cruz de La Palma Award), Spells (2001), Fuzzy Logic (2002) and, in this same collection, Killing Plato (Marginales 218), which won the National Poetry Award 2004, and Threads followed by Which (Marginales 243), which deserved the Andalusia Critics Award and the National Critics Award in 2007, Hainuwele and Other Poems (2009, Ricardo Molina Award in its 1990 version), The Wound in the Tongue (2015), Which Diminishing (2018) and Medea (2020).
