Üñüm püllü. Bird spirit
by Lorenzo Aillapán
Description
Lorenzo Aillapán, recognized as a Living Human Treasure in 2012 by UNESCO, is the Mapuche bird man - üñümche in Mapuzugun. A poet originally from the coast of the Araucanía Region, he is a great connoisseur of nature, of the mysteries hidden by living beings on land and in the sea. Part of this wisdom is shared with the readers in these 46 poems about diverse organisms that inhabit different environments: the water (fish and seafood), the mountainous universe (trees) and the winged universe (birds). Through his
verses, the poet describes various aspects of these living beings: what they are like, what the place is like where they live, how they behave, what use they can be put to and what importance they have for the Mapuche people. In the case of the birds, the poems also incorporate the onomatopoeia of their song. This complete anthological volume is bilingual Mapuzugun/Spanish.
