Caderninhos de Saer

Sylvia Colombo

Aos 28 anos, o escritor argentino Juan José Saer escreveu:

“Não permitirei que ninguém penetre nos meus cadernos, como fizeram com Kafka ou com Pavese. Não morrerei. Eu escolherei com o tempo qual é a palavra justa e necessária que devo dizer, e o resto jogarei no fogo. Sei que tenho madeira de escritor dos grandes e meu dever consiste em não permitir que celebrem como verdades os meus equívocos, ou como genialidade as minhas torpezas.”

Mas o autor de “Unidad de Lugar” (1967) e “El Limonero Real” (1974), natural de Santa Fe, mas radicado em Paris por mais de trinta anos, não queimou seus escritos. Ao contrário, os levou consigo através de mudanças até sua morte, em Paris, em 2005. “Papeles de Trabajo – Borradores Inéditos”, que sai agora na Argentina, é uma coletânea de manuscritos, anotações, rascunhos, aforismos e comentários de leituras de Saer sobre seus livros e roteiros de cinema.

O escritor interiorano foi um dos grandes autores contemporâneos argentinos, ao lado de Tomás Eloy Martínez (1934-2010) e Ricardo Piglia. A ensaísta e crítica literária Beatriz Sarlo já declarou que considera “Ninguém, Nada, Nunca” (Companhia das Letras) um dos melhores retratos da Argentina durante a ditadura, uma trama que envolve o assassinato misterioso de cavalos na província.

Entre seus principais livros, também saíram no Brasil “As Nuvens” (Companhia das Letras) e “O Enteado” (Iluminuras). Este é um relato fictício baseado num episódio real, o abandono de um grumete espanhol que pertencia à expedição de Juan Díaz de Solís entre índios canibais numa ilha do Rio da Prata, no século 16. O garoto, único sobrevivente de um ataque transformado em banquete humano, vive e cresce no meio dos “selvagens”, e depois tem de enfrentar a “civilização” em sua volta à Europa.

Em “Borradores Inéditos” há comentários sobre Faulkner, Baudelaire, Fourier, Borges, Evita, glossários de palavras para serem usadas em textos e, curiosamente, relatos de sonhos e desabafos contra sua própria distração e dispersão. Não há nenhum livro inédito, mas é um convite para aproximar-se do entorno de suas novelas. Refletem o escritor de ideias e imagens fortes, mas de comportamento dócil e amável. Mais ou menos como se vê nesta entrevista, em que o tom cordial não minimiza as duras críticas a, entre outras coisas, Michel Houellebecq, García Márquez e o jornalismo cultural.

  4. Good article and straight to the point. I don’t know if this is in fact the best place to ask but do you folks have any thoughts on where to hire some professional writers? Thank you 🙂

  5. Thanks for your article. What I want to comment on is that when looking for a good on the net electronics shop, look for a internet site with complete information on important factors such as the level of privacy statement, security details, any payment methods, and other terms along with policies. Generally take time to look into the help plus FAQ areas to get a better idea of the way the shop works, what they can perform for you, and in what way you can use the features.

  6. That is the right weblog for anyone who desires to seek out out about this topic. You understand a lot its almost exhausting to argue with you (not that I really would want…HaHa). You undoubtedly put a brand new spin on a topic thats been written about for years. Great stuff, simply great!

  7. Nice read, I just passed this onto a colleague who was doing a little research on that. And he just bought me lunch because I found it for him smile So let me rephrase that: Thank you for lunch! “But O the truth, the truth. The many eyes That look on it The diverse things they see.” by George Meredith.

  8. I do trust all the concepts you have presented to your post. They are very convincing and can definitely work. Still, the posts are too quick for newbies. May you please extend them a little from next time? Thank you for the post.

  9. In this awesome pattern of things you actually secure an A with regard to hard work. Exactly where you lost us was in all the particulars. You know, it is said, details make or break the argument.. And that couldn’t be more accurate at this point. Having said that, permit me say to you just what exactly did work. The text is actually really powerful which is probably the reason why I am making the effort in order to comment. I do not make it a regular habit of doing that. 2nd, even though I can certainly notice the jumps in reasoning you come up with, I am definitely not confident of exactly how you seem to connect the ideas that produce the actual conclusion. For right now I will, no doubt subscribe to your point but wish in the future you actually connect the facts much better.

  10. Hello are using WordPress for your blog platform? I’m new to the blog world but I’m trying to get started and create my own. Do you need any coding knowledge to make your own blog? Any help would be really appreciated!
