Pedro Lemebel

Hijo de Pedro Mardones, panadero, y Violeta Lemebel, nació "literalmente en la orilla del Zanjón de la Aguada" y "vivió en medio del barro" hasta que, a mediados de los años sesenta, "su familia se mudó a un conjunto de viviendas sociales en avenida Departamental".
Estudió en un liceo industrial donde se enseñaba forja de metal y mueblería y, después, en la Universidad de Chile, donde se tituló de profesor de Artes Plásticas. Trabajó en dos liceos, de los cuales fue despedido en 1983 "presumiblemente por su apariencia, ya que no hacía mucho esfuerzo por disimular su homosexualidad".
En sus libros aborda fundamentalmente la marginalidad chilena con algunas referencias autobiográficas. Su estilo irreverente, barroco y kitsch lo ha hecho conocid

Gonzalo Millán

Para Gonzalo Millán la poesía fue una mezcla de lenguaje, tiempo y memoria: "Unos le ponen más memoria, otros más tiempo o más lenguaje, pero esos son los materiales primordiales. Sin saberlo, he trabajado desde siempre con ellos" ("La cultura en Chile sigue siendo la rueda de repuesto", El Periodista, 2 de junio, 2006, p. 32). Con apenas 21 años, publicó Relación personal (1968), por el que recibió el premio Pedro de Oña: "Los primeros poemas están escritos en ese contexto, de un adolescente que se empieza a sentir también al margen, a sentirse distinto, está insatisfecho con el mundo que encuentra, el Chile de los años 60" ("La poesía tiene que mutar". Calabaza del diablo, mayo, 2003, p. 14). Tres años antes había escrito Chumbeque, una n
