Rodrigo Cortés regresa a las librerías con Verbolario: diccionario satírico, humorístico y poético, que, con sus más de dos mil definiciones y siete años de trabajo a la espalda, se atreve a enmendarle la plana al diccionario.
«Verbolario es un milagro sostenido: la noticia más extraordinaria del día está en sus definiciones». —Manuel Jabois
Toda palabra tiene su significado oculto (su significado verdadero) acechante entre sus pliegues con la astucia del salteador de caminos; se desvela sólo con el uso y sólo ante la perspicacia y el oído, que son el mismo sentido.
Rodrigo Cortés reinventa el lenguaje y hace confesar a cada voz su auténtico propósito. Verbolario no define las palabras: las desnuda.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Rodrigo Cortés returns to bookstores with Verbulary: a satirical, humorous, and poetic dictionary, with more than 2,000 definitions and seven years of work, that dares to correct and improve dictionaries.
“Verbulary is an uninterrupted miracle: the most extraordinary news of the day is in its definitions.” —Manuel Jabois
Every word has its hidden meaning (its true meaning) lurking between its folds like a thief and only reveals itself with use and unique insight and receptiveness, which are the same thing.
Rodrigo Cortés reinvents language and makes each expression confess its real purpose. Verbulary does not define the words: it reveals them.
