«El paradigma de una nueva literatura. --El PaÃs
«Monge escribe desde las profundidades y sabe qué trucos usar para que sus ficciones destilen la verdad. --El Cultural Los relatos de En lengua privada desafÃan su propia naturaleza ficcional al aventurar sentencias y estrategias que parecen pertenecer al ensayo y la crónica. Aunque estos textos parecen jugar a disfrazarse con los atuendos de otros géneros, no niegan lo que son, pues cada uno termina por exponer, a través de diálogos y arcos de tensión dramática, los secretos Ãntimos de la escritura y de los momentos que hacen de una vida algo particular. Aquà se revelan la creatividad del recuerdo y la del olvido, las razones para rastrear nuestra propia experiencia en la poesÃa, la naturaleza múltiple de las voces que nos habitan y de aquellas con que nos cruzamos, y la inquietante presencia del doble. Este libro es, a su vez, un diario de lecturas donde las palabras de Sada, Montalbetti, Kristof, Moore, Coetzee o Di Benedetto contagian de sentido los instantes en que la «enfermedad del lenguaje genera sus sÃntomas más lacerantes. Al fondo, Emiliano Monge, autor y personaje, relee su pasado ( o acaso su futuro?) en estas páginas. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The paradigm of a new literature. --El PaÃs
Monge writes from the depths and knows which tricks to use so that his fiction distills the truth. --El Cultural The stories in In Private Language challenge their own fictional nature by venturing into statements and strategies that seem to belong to the essay and the chronicle. Although these texts seem to play at disguising themselves in the garb of other genres, they do not deny what they are, for each one ultimately reveals, through dialogues and arcs of dramatic tension, the intimate secrets of writing and of the moments that make a life unique. Here, the creativity of memory and of oblivion is revealed, along with the reasons for tracing our own experience in poetry, the multifaceted nature of the voices that inhabit us and those we encounter, and the unsettling presence of the double. This book is, in turn, a reading journal where the words of Sada, Montalbetti, Kristof, Moore, Coetzee, or Di Benedetto infuse with meaning the moments when the disease of language produces its most excruciating symptoms. In the background, Emiliano Monge--author and character--revisits his past (or perhaps his future?) in these pages.
