Photo Courtesy www.elespectador.com <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In a small book of poems, Maria Mercedes Carranza proposes a sad route through 24 cities that have suffered extreme violence in her martyred country: Colombia. We traverse the cities through short, concise poems, written as a tribute to the inhabitants who experienced the violence \u2014 between the army, the insurgent groups, the paramilitary and the drug cartels \u2014 and which kept Colombia in a downward spiral for nearly half a century.<\/p>\n<p>The force of the poems rings like bells sounded from the center of the destruction, converting into the echo of an unbearable tranquility.<\/p>\n<p>Written in a form similar to the Japanese haiku, but without respect for their structure as far as the space and number of syllables, the poems resonate in the silence like permanent reclamations against the injustice of the indiscriminate violence. The first poem, \u201cNecocl\u00ed,\u201d is a full declaration of those intentions when it suggests:<\/p>\n<p><em>Maybe<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>this next instant<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>late at night or in the morning<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>in Necocl\u00ed<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>only the song of the flies<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>will be heard.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This poem, which speaks of the song of the flies, is the one that defines the title of the book, like a vindicating peace felt when one only hears the buzzing movement of the flies in the silent tranquility behind the tragedy.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5172\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5172\" style=\"width: 354px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-5172\" href=\"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/2010\/09\/maria-mercedes-carranza-book-release-party\/sonf-of-the-flies-copy-for-web\/\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-5172\" title=\"Song of the Flies \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/sonf-of-the-flies-copy-for-web.jpg?resize=354%2C480&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"354\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/sonf-of-the-flies-copy-for-web.jpg?resize=354%2C480&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 354w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/sonf-of-the-flies-copy-for-web.jpg?resize=600%2C813&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/sonf-of-the-flies-copy-for-web.jpg?resize=184%2C250&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 184w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/sonf-of-the-flies-copy-for-web.jpg?w=1166&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 1166w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 354px) 100vw, 354px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5172\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cover Art: Maestro Pedro Nel G\u00f3mez, detail Dance of the Turkey Buzzards, courtesy of the Pedro Nel G\u00f3mez Museum, Medell\u00edn, Colombia<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Poem after poem is like peeling off massacres until the river\u2019s water is stained the color of blood as in \u201cBarrancabermeja,\u201d a metaphor of the massacred who are thrown into the Magdalena River, or as in \u201cDabeiba,\u201d where the sweet river \u201ccarries red roses scattered over its water\/they are not roses but blood that follows other courses.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Metaphors are carefully selected to illustrate horror with an extreme precision.

The finished product is a wonderful linguistic jewel.<\/p>\n<p>Maria Mercedes Carranza was born in Bogota in 1945 and became widely respected in Colombia as a cultural journalist, a member of the National Parliament, and founder-director of the Silva Poetry House in Bogota, an organization dedicated to the creation, drive and dissemination of poetry. Carranza always believed in the power of poetry to transform reality and to cure the wounds caused by the endless violence of her country.<\/p>\n<p>In July of 2003, she committed suicide, leaving a painful example of the destructive connection between violence and personal life.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5280\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5280\" style=\"width: 265px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/margarita-millar.jpg?quality=89&#038;ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5280  \" title=\"Courtesy of www.margaritamillar.com\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/margarita-millar.jpg?resize=265%2C223&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"265\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/margarita-millar.jpg?w=441&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 441w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/09\/margarita-millar.jpg?resize=296%2C250&amp;quality=89&amp;ssl=1 296w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 265px) 100vw, 265px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5280\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Margarita Millar<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The translator of the book, Margarita Millar, was born in Colombia and has lived in San Francisco since 1983.
