Publicado originalmente en 1988, Carece de causa es hoy uno de los principales poemarios de Jos??? Kozer (La Habana, Cuba, 1940), escritor fundamental de la l???rica hisp???nica contempor???nea. En este cuaderno, que por vez primera aparece en edici???n biling???e, se advierten rasgos importantes de la po???tica de su autor: la imbricaci???n de la tradici???n hebrea, la cultura cubana y el sustrato zen; la condici???n transterrada del sujeto po???tico; el debate cultural -y existencial- a partir de nociones como identidad, naci???n, religi???n y di???spora; el imaginario simb???lico de la familia como elemento vertebrador; la cotidianidad trascendente y mitificada; la recuperaci???n de la memoria en sus m???s plurales significaciones... Los poemas aqu??? reunidos son tambi???n un ejemplo paradigm???tico del meticuloso trabajo de Kozer con el espa???ol, su lengua po???tica por excelencia: la voluntad de experimentaci???n, la diversidad de registros y un abundante repertorio l???xico lo caracterizan. De ah??? que la traducci???n al ingl???s, realizada por Peter Boyle, multiplique a???n m???s las repercusiones exeg???ticas y culturales de estos versos. Originally published in 1988, No Known Cause is one of the main titles by Jos??? Kozer (Havana, Cuba, 1940), a fundamental writer of contemporary Hispanic poetry. This book, which now appears for the first time in a bilingual edition, reveals significant features of Kozer's ars poetica , such as the interweaving of the Hebrew tradition with the Cuban culture and the Zen substratum, the expatriate condition of the lyrical subject, the cultural and existential debate based on notions such as identity, nation, religion and diaspora, the symbolic imagery around the central axis of family, the mythicizing of everyday life, the recovery of memory in its most plural meanings... The poems collected in this book are also a paradigmatic example of Kozer's meticulous work with Spanish language, his poetic language par excellence , a work characterized by the will to experiment, the diversity of registers and the richness of its lexical repertoire. Accordingly, the English translation by Peter Boyle multiplies the exegetical and cultural impact of the verses contained in this book.
