Contents

Composition

The book is composed of 22 parts, the majority of which are subdivided into 2 or 3 sections.

Literary technique

In Tinta Invisible the poet/narrator uses a poetic technique that resorts to a narrative tone, to a very innovative space and rhythm. This invites the reader to become familiar with the work, to fuse itself in it and to maintain the interest until the end. The author tries to attract the interest of potential poetry lovers and to promote the almost lost interest for this literary genre. In its totality, the story is narrated in verses. As a peculiar thing, the parts and the sections of the story have their own life, constituting something complete on their own. There we see poems within poems and stories within the story.

Historical context

Tinta Invisible’s story takes place in the first decade of the 21st century, in a historical frame recognizable by the vertiginous height of the social networks. Those places in the Internet whose reality is undeniable since they exist for the human encounter and the social interaction and in them the individual finds popularity, social integration, education, and bonds of affection and business.

Characters

Diana, poet/muse and the poet/narrator, who reencountered by accident in the social networks of the indomitable virtual world. The development of that friendship is initiated with an interchange of memories that takes them by splendid literary courses and it drags them to a sweeping romance. They are the protagonists of an evocative story of poetry, coincidences and love.

Genesis of the story

The writing of this work took place between October 2009 and June 2010, to be published in July of the same year. Having published two works in English in 2009, not separated of that creative current, the author initiated this work inspired by his new participation in the social networks. It is there where Lacayo is inspired, sometimes outside reality, to catch with invisible ink the provocation of the cybernetic dreams.

Interpretation

Tinta Invisible is a romantic story that takes place in its own virtual world. Philosophically, there is an influence of platonic conception in this work. Literarily, we find reminiscences of Pedro Calderon de la Barca. And as far as the time of this idyllic story, we experience the 21st century in its entire splendor. Thus, these verses thread a story that the readers will appreciate like something immanent.

Contribution and originality

In her prologue to Tinta Invisible the writer and journalist Maria Lourdes Pallais indicates what she considers the great contribution of this innovating work: The exquisite balance that it achieves between several worlds.

Pallais explains it: as well as the author of the Great Theater of the World reflected in his work the magnificent but also contradictory 17th century, the most complicated of Spanish history, Lacayo introduces, and places the reader, in this new world of the social networks, the quickest and most untamed until now, where there are no countries, much less borders. Where everything can be what is, or the other way around, or quite the opposite. Where the fantasy, within a certain basic protocol of communication, is the common denominator of the human relations.

According to Pallais, Lacayo achieves a memorable narrative concert between the Calderonian classic story, the modern poetry shades of Rubén Darío, the colors Matisse style, and the postmodern context of the social networks, the new bars of the 21st century.

Poet Blanca Castellón expresses his appreciation for this work in this fashion: “Max L. Lacayo interlaces verse and prose and leads us in loving passage, by the footpath where the intense sensuality shines, refreshing and vital. The same inexplicable magic that ignites the dawns.”

Poet Ariel Montoya indicates: “Max L. Lacayo in his poetic narrative of Tinta Invisible explores the route of the affectionate current of the human feeling and let us clearly see that poetry and the search for the amorous encounter, as virtual bonds, only come to reinforce our romantic reality.”

The most outstanding Nicaraguan newspapers have announced the publication of Tinta Invisible. La Prensa Literaria dedicated a whole page to part I of the book. El Nuevo Diario and Bolsa de Noticias, gave account of the release of this work.
