Opus Carminum - Work of Songs - represents the culmination of Alexandre Vallejo's poetic journey, bringing together the essence of his six previous works into a single, carefully curated anthology.

A Map of the Soul's Landscape

In this collection, Vallejo invites readers to traverse the landscapes of his soul: from the peaks of philosophical contemplation to the valleys of everyday experience, from the deserts of solitude to the oceans of human connection. Each poem serves as a window to a specific moment in the author's creative process while inviting readers to find reflections of their own experiences.

Multiple Reading Pathways

Unlike traditional poetry collections, Opus Carminum offers several reading itineraries:

  • Chronological: Experience the evolution of the author's voice and style
  • Thematic Cycles: Follow recurring threads like Resilience, Bridges, or Time & Memory
  • Emotional Resonance: Select poems suited for introspection, hope, connection, or renewal
A Bridge Between Worlds

Bridges-a recurring metaphor throughout the collection-connect the ephemeral with the eternal, silence with words, solitude with communion. Vallejo builds these bridges not only through imagery but also through his multilingual approach, using Latin phrases as gateways to universal traditions of thought.

From the Author of "The Black Book of the Heavens"

Born in Montevideo, Uruguay, Alexandre Vallejo brings his background in classical philosophy and literature to create poetry that is both deeply reflective and emotionally resonant. His unique ability to interweave complex philosophical concepts with everyday experiences creates works that speak to readers from diverse backgrounds.

Themes That Resonate
  • The circularity of time and memory
  • Resilience in the face of adversity
  • The tension between permanence and change
  • The small gestures that sustain our humanity
  • The dialectic between distance and closeness

As Vallejo himself says in one of his most revealing verses: "life is more bearable yes, thus with empathy."

Perfect for lovers of contemplative poetry, philosophical reflection, and readers who appreciate the Latin American literary tradition of Borges, Cort?zar, and Benedetti.
