Resumen
AYRAM CHEDE, Carlos Julio. Poetics of childhood: play, nostalgia and inhabited solitude in "Jamil" by Álvaro Mutis. La Palabra [online]. 2015, n.27, pp.67-77. ISSN 0121-8530.
The present article articulates the relation between the novel "Jamil", which is part of the Tríptico de mar y tierra [Land and sea tryptic] (1993); and the life of "Maqroll el Gaviero", that memorable character of the poetics of Álvaro Mutis flooded by wandering, loss and failure, in one of his last adventures as a sailor on terra firma. The adventures lived by Macqroll are part of his life, of his present on the mainland which he has adopted as a home, and have left an indelible print on the deepest part of his existence. But, what happens when the paths of misfortune are threatened by the abandonment of that vagabond life full of secret pain that is only communicated to solitude? The adventures and meditations of the Gaviero are interrumpted by the arrival of a character that enables him to think that all that has been lived is not just loss. We are speaking of Jamil, the son of Abdul Bashur.
