Los relatos de médicos
"Mágicamente observador y mimético del mundo real, los detalles emergen en su escritura con sorprendente frescura, claridad y economía. Williams ve las formas de la tierra y ve el espíritu que se agita detrás de las letras. Cada uno de sus trazos veloces y transparentes tiene la energía nerviosa y concentrada del vuelo de un pájaro, asciende brusca e intensamente como un pájaro". —Randall Jarrell
William Carlos Williams, que ejerció durante toda su vida como médico de cabecera y pediatra —practicaba la medicina de día y escribía de noche, hasta caer rendido—, dedicó una serie de textos a su profesión que son considerados hoy una obra fundamental de la literatura anglosajona. Convertido en un emblema de la vanguardia literaria americana, son el sustrato íntimo de sus personajes y la insondable honestidad de su mirada los que, unidos a un estilo conciso y sugerente, nutrido de imágenes imborrables, lo han convertido en un clásico y en un autor poderosamente vivo para los cánones contemporáneos.
Si para Williams el español fue el idioma de su niñez, esta edición cuenta en la traducción con Eduardo Halfon, tan amante de la concisión como Williams y un autor para quien también el español fue lenguaje de infancia, casi olvidado tras su traslado a los Estados Unidos y recuperado en su espléndida madurez como narrador.

Spring and All
First published in 1923, “Spring and All” is the groundbreaking volume of poetry by the modernist and imagist American poet William Carlos Williams. Williams, born in New Jersey in 1883, worked as a doctor for most of his life while spending his free time writing plays, short stories, novels, essays, and poetry. Containing some of Williams’s best-known poetry, the volume alternates between prose and free verse. Williams’s prose has been described as cryptic, dramatic, and full of energy. Greatly influenced by T. S. Eliot’s “The Waste Land”, which was published in 1922, Williams sought to recreate the world through language, rather than merely describe it. This desire and Eliot’s influence are evident in his beautiful and evocative poems. Two of Williams’s most famous poems can be found in this volume, numbered in the book as I and XXII, these poems are known more commonly as “Spring and All” and “The Red Wheelbarrow” respectively. While “Spring and All” received little attention during Williams’s lifetime, it was reprinted after his death and continues to be viewed as an important and significant work of American literature, being named by the Library of Congress in 2012 as one of the 88 “Books that Shaped America”.
