Life is a mass of heavy bones, darling

Susa, 2019
I'm writing this critique on St. John's Eve, the day the old one is burned and the new one is welcomed. A perfect time to read Miren Agur Meabe's latest work. At one point, the protagonist says that this work is “a cleansing ritual”. The title reads as follows: “I still had no title, but intuition suggested bones: this symbol could give unity to my work, start on the skin, follow by hands, stop in my eye and go to the depths of the body. But when you look at the writing process: The realization of this book has been for me an act of liberation of a pale and sorpressive wheel.”
The stones that make up the mosaics are the title of one of these narratives: Teselas. Just like an image to describe the structure of this book. It is a narrative, a network of stories or fragmented novel, plagued with links back and forth; fiction, in the case of using the term anglo; self-fication, taking into account that it has created facts and characters in reality and incarnated them in fiction. Beyond that, the story focuses on cards, poetry, day to day, will, the collection of dreams and signs of flora and fauna.En language, the Basque is as dense as
in previous works. And it doesn't come alone, but sometimes we find several expressions taken from Latin, English, French, Italian and Spanish. La recherche de l’absolu, Gratis et amore, Daily program…
The protagonist reviews the experience so far and shows us in the face of loneliness, unease, reparations. But the comrades will also be there, on the rowing: Rosalia de Castro, Colette, Virginia Woolf; relatives and deceased, Nadine and other “sisters”; lovers or O and Z; or literature from here and there crossed in the world of the escritura.El stage will be filled with mists and leaks, and there will
also be gardens, forests and trees. We will meet “the girl of yesterday and the lady of today” on these pages, will be dedicated to paying debts, in grief, in writing, from the past to the present, to embark on a clean and eager path. Indeed: “The beauty of life is an exercise that puts us away from perdition.”
