Este es el nuevo libro de poemas de Jan
Bervoets, publicado por la editorial anarquista de Utrech Kelder (editora de
Lautréamont en los Países Bajos), con dibujos-collages de Rik Lina y, en la
cubierta, un fragmento de una de sus pinturas free jazz. Se presenta el
próximo domingo:
Sobre Jan Bervoets, surrealista demasiado
poco conocido fuera de sus fronteras, nos escribe Rik Lina:
“Jan Bervoets is the poet of absolute
freedom using engagement as weapon in a totally unpolitical way, so «feels» for
me close to Benjamin Péret. No surprise he is one of the anarchists active
here, using his pen in many articles in anarchist magazines.
As a poet he uses many many words, sentences
and saying from popular and common language, slogans, advertisements etc.
turning them into unexpected lines ; so he says it to be absolutely necessary
for the surrealist poet to hit the streets. He says also: «I am taking the
words back that advertisement steals from poetry!»”
Y Laurens Vancrevel: “In his poetry he tries
for a definitive change of life and society, so nobody is being lived any more,
but can choose for himself how to live and think.”

También Rik Lina ha realizado la portada de
otro libro de Gerbrand Muller, un amigo de los surrealistas neerlandeses:
