A knife in the honey. Complete Poetry 1960-2010
Corrado Calabrò is a poet who moves freely, that word works in solitude and autonomy, with a seriousness and high level on record, far from the great centers of dynamism and literary partisanship, oblivious to the fashion and aesthetic triumph away from the noise of the cliques. Loyal only to himself and his poetry. Following a host of his first books very favorable criticism, the poetry of Corrado Calabrò suffered a long period of silence due to the freezing of the culture and poetry during the 60's because of the infamous policy of neovanguardistas naif. To Calabrò life through poetry, which bears the signs and scars, but tends to go further, mediumship, as in the evocation of elusive presence and yet we speak, "Undeniably my poetry is about my life but it says a way as any autobiography would be able to speak. He says, melting my life experience with nature, plunging into the sea, entrusting the Wind y. .. love. Love sought and not attained, the love sought and found by serendipity. " Here are the main elements of her poetry inspiring: the sea, wind and love. Calabrò shows a decided preference for closed forms, with intensive use of the pentameter as meter base and the use of enjambment heptasílabo and some other minor transgressions, obtaining high-intensity sound effects. He says that for poetry the metric is as important as breathing heartbeat. The regularity of the metro has given his poetry a musical, a dock, an extraordinary clarity of style. His poetry will be in memory of their readers when they are deleted forever the fleeting fortunes of other poets. Emilio Coco
