Summary:
Un andar solitario entre la gente es la historia de un caminante que escribe siempre a lápiz, recortando y pegando cosas, recogiendo papeles por la calle, en la estela de artistas que han practicado el arte del collage, la basura y el reciclaje ?como Diane Arbus o Dubuffet?, así como la de los grandes caminantes urbanos de la literatura: de Quincey, Baudelaire, Poe, Joyce, Walter Benjamin, Melville, Lorca, Whitman? A la manera de Poeta en Nueva York, de Lorca, la narración de Un andar solitario entre la gente está hecha de celebración y denuncia: la denuncia del ruido extremo del capitalismo, de la conversión de todo en mercancía y basura; y la celebración de la belleza y la variedad del mundo, de la mirada ecológica y estética que recicla la basura en fertilidad y arte. 'Me gusta la literatura que me trastorna y me embriaga como vino o música, que me saca de mí, que me fuerza a leerla en voz alta y a favorecer su contagio, que me explica el mundo y me pone e n pie de guerra con el mundo y me refugia de él y me revela con la misma vehemencia todo su horror y toda su belleza.' = Un andar solitario entre la gente is the story of a walker who always writes in pencil, cutting and hitting things, picking up papers in the street, in the wake of artists who have practiced the art of collage, garbage and recycling? Like Diane Arbus or Dubuffet ?, as well as that of the great urban walkers of literature: de Quincey, Baudelaire, Poe, Joyce, Walter Benjamin, Melville, Lorca, Whitman? In the manner of Poeta en Nueva York, de Lorca, the narrative of Un andar solitario entre la gente is made of celebration and denunciation: the denunciation of the extreme noise of capitalism, of the conversion of everything into merchandise and garbage; and the celebration of the beauty and variety of the world, of the ecological and aesthetic look that recycles garbage into fertility and art. 'I like literature that upsets me and intoxicates me like wine or music, tha t takes me out of me, that forces me to read it out loud and to favor its contagion, that explains the world to me and puts me on the warpath with the world and I take refuge from him and he reveals to me with equal vehemence all his horror and all his beauty.
