"Irremediablemente", poemario de Alfonsina Storni, poetisa argentina a caballo entre el modernismo y el postromanticismo, es un libro especial, intenso y hermoso. El tema central es el amor, un amor atormentado, y la muerte vista como liberación tras un largo y doloroso viaje. De hecho, como ella misma señaló, el libro "es hijo de un momento de suma desazón y fue escrito en dos meses: Enero y Febrero de 1919".

La autora, con gran sensibilidad, nos presenta y despide su libro, en el que condensa toda la intensidad de sus emociones, y se nos muestra como es a través de sus versos. Así lo explica ella en "Este libro", poema con el que abre la obra:

"Yo no estoy y estoy siempre en mis versos, viajero,

pero puedes hallarme si por el libro avanzas

dejando en los umbrales tus fieles y balanzas,

requieren mis jardines piedad de jardinero".

"Irremediablemente", a collection of poems by Alfonsina Storni, Argentine poet between modernism and post-romanticism, is a special, intense and beautiful book. The central theme is tormented love and death as liberation after a long and painful journey. In fact, as she herself pointed out, the book "is the child of a moment of extreme distress and was written in two months: January and February 1919".

The author, with great sensitivity, introduces and closes her book, in which she condenses all the intensity of her emotions, and shows herself as she is through her verses. This is how she explains it in "Este libro", the poem with which she opens the work:

"I am not here and I am always in my verses, traveler,

but you can find me if you advance through the book

leaving on the thresholds your faithful and scales,

my gardens require the mercy of a gardener"
