Abstract

This paper proposes a reading of five poems from Jorge Teillier, in which food and beverage become metaphors for the poetic subject. This subject is in an uprooting position, so he begins a journey through memory towards childhood, with the purpose to perform a reconstruction of it, creating, at the same time, an inscription of his family history.
