TERCER LIBRO DE CRÓNICAS

Una selección de las crónicas de António Lobo Antunes publicadas entre 2000 y 2004. Este Tercer libro de crónicas reúne algunas de las crónicas que António Lobo Antunes escribió entre 2002 y 2004. El oficio de escritor y las dudas que lo asaltan («¿seré capaz?»), su estancia en Angola, la infancia «en una casa con una acacia», la familia(«estos seres extraños en los que se prolongan nuestras facciones»), el amor, lo efímero y lo eterno son algunos de los temas recurrentes de sus novelas, que desarrolla también en las crónicas. Los múltiples registros del autor, la sutileza de su humor, su virtuosismo y el arte de llevar al lector de la sonrisa a la emoción extrema hacen que estos textos se lean con una enorme facilidad. Además, las pequeñas anécdotas que relata, así como sus reflexiones sobre el paso del tiempo y el oficio de escribir, convierten estas crónicas en lo más parecido a una autobiografía de uno de los escritores más reconocidos de la literatura contemporánea. La crítica ha dicho...«Lobo es un preciosista que merece desde hace ya rato el Nobel de Literatura. Tengo la sospecha de que sus actividad literaria lo llevará directamente, antes que tarde, hasta las nieves frías de Estocolmo, cuando menos lo esperemos.»J.J. Armas Marcelo, Cultural «Lobo Antunes [...] escribe con una feroz e inconfundible poética de los infiernos del inconsciente. Hace penetrar a sus lectores en esas exigenteszoas oscuras, tenebrosas, fieramente evocativas, que traducen, de la forma más exacta y estremecedora, las asfixia y pesadilla inconexa e inhabitable, roída de miedos, recuerdos, obsesivos, secretos y silencios, que es interior humano.»Mercedes Monmany, ABC

ONLY IF

Linda Lee Pope dealt with more than her fair share of tragedy in life. From losing her mother at a young age to seeing her own daughter die in a car accident, Linda was beginning to wonder if life was even worth living. In fact, she even contemplated suicide at the depth of her depression. However, the presence of a singular goal, created shortly after her mother's death through the imagery of a popular television show, created a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow for Linda. The thought of escaping the long, harsh winters of her native Wisconsin for the tropical paradise of Maui, Hawaii, lingered in the back of her mind for more than forty years. Finally, Linda decided to make the ultimate leap. Selling her home and most of her possessions, she bought a one-way ticket to Maui with nothing guaranteed upon her arrival. Nothing, that is, except taking control of her life with the satisfaction of making her wildest dreams come true.
