The Nabori Indian: A centenary with a magnifying glass
Today, Friday, September 30, the Naborí Indian would be one hundred years old. But it happens that matters related to this poet are not easy for me. Let’s say that my word is absorbed by the force of an intensely clean love full of memories. A dilemma? Yes, a dilemma, perhaps half resolved when I put into practice a kind of distancing where the close image is replaced by words that little by little allow me to develop some themes.
