Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: New. Chilco is the name of Pascale's home island. It is also the Mapudungun word for fuchsia: a word that evokes tropical lushness and the deep greenness of the forest. Pascale's partner, Marina, grew up in the vertical slums of Capital City, a place scarred by centuries of colonialism and now the ravages of feckless developers. Every day the couple fear a sinkhole will open up and take with it another poor neighborhood, another raft of refugees from the hinterlands: the indigenous, the poor, who are toiling for an all-consuming machine that is devouring the earth from beneath their feet.When they finally flee the collapsing city to live in Chilco, are they escaping centuries of colonial repression or merely stepping into a twisted new version of it? From her first days in this place Marina can't avoid the feeling that everything is decaying around her - there is a smell of putrefaction in the air that no one except her can detect; there are seismic rifts that the political cruelties of the times have opened up in her own relationship with Pascale; and she is haunted by insistent memories of her past.In this baroque, tropical jeremiad, the wounds of capitalism and empire inflict themselves on the person and on the land, but linger most devastatingly in language and memory. Indigenous Mapudungun and Quechua words, history, and cosmology form the chorus to this tropical fever dream of life, love, death, and friendship.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "El paisaje que eres siempre sera el paisaje que cargas". Chilco, una novela de amor, rebeldia y amistad.Una pareja sobrevive en el centro de la ciudad Capital, sin sentirla como unhogar. Marina, la narradora, es nieta de una migrante peruana y trabaja en el archivo del Museo de Historia Natural y Social, mientras que Pascale carga la tradicion de su familia lafkenche de la isla de Chilco, al sur del pais, subsistiendo gracias a trabajos de carpinteria. Su mejor amiga, Leila, tuvo que dejar Haiti para probar suerte en este pais, que avanza a paso firme hacia su destruccion. La caida de un edificio en Gran Avenida, los socavones que comienzan a aparecer sin una causa y un movimiento social que se empena en demolerlo todo son las senales de una decadencia que parece irreversible, al tiempo que la pareja y su amiga se organizan y luchan por una existencia mas digna. Es en ese momento que Marina y Pascale deciden migrar a Chilco, donde lapromesa de una vida mas plena parece ser posible, lejos de la explotacion y la violencia colonial de la Capital. Chilco es, entonces, el simbolo de un espacio en el que las culturas de este continente pueden expresarse.Daniela Catrileo, escritora y filosofa que suma numerosos reconocimientos por sus libros Rio herido, Guerra florida y Pinen, nos entrega una novela dolorosa y bella, de un barroco tan inusual como necesario en Chile. Una suma de culturas, colores y voces que representa con maestria las complejidades de nuestra realidad actual. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "The landscape you are will always be the landscape you carry.Chilco, a novel of love, rebellion and friendship. A couple survives in the center of the Capital city, without feeling like ahome. Marina, the narrator, is the granddaughter of a Peruvian migrant and works in the archive of the Museum of Natural and Social History, while Pascale carries the tradition of her Lafkenche family from the island of Chilco, in the south of the country, subsisting thanks to work carpentry. Her best friend, Leila, had to leave Haiti to try her luck in this country, which is moving steadily towards its destruction. The fall of a building on Gran Avenida, the sinkholes that begin to appear without a cause and a social movement that is determined to demolish everything are the signs of a decline that seems irreversible, while the couple and their friend organize and fight for a more dignified existence. It was at that moment that Marina and Pascale decided to migrate to Chilco, where theThe promise of a fuller life seems to be possible, far from the exploitation and colonial violence of the Capital. Chilco is, then, the symbol of a space in which the cultures of this continent can express themselves. Daniela Catrileo, a writer and philosopher who has received numerous awards for her books Rio herido, Guerra florida and Pinen, gives us a painful and beautiful novel, of a baroque style that is as unusual as it is necessary in Chile. A sum of cultures, colors and voices that masterfully represents the complexities of our current reality.
