Amélie Nothomb
About this listen
Metafísica de los tubos cuenta los primeros tres años de vida de un ser obsesionado por el agua que, disconforme con su entorno, adopta la inerte forma de tubo como condición existencial. Con la crueldad, el realismo y el peculiar humor al que nos tiene acostumbrados, Amélie Nothomb rememora, a través de una narración que combina filosofía y fontanería, episodios de su infancia japonesa, transcurrida en Osaka. Que la protagonista de esta novela sea un bebé superdotado que opta por vegetar, que se autoproclama Dios y que se niega a manifestar sus emociones hasta que descubre el sentido de la vida en una barrita de chocolate y la muerte en un estanque habitado por repugnantes carpas, constituye un acto de coherencia con un universo literario en el que la obsesión por venerar el paraíso de la infancia es un tema recurrente.
Metafísica de los tubos constituye uno de los relatos más autobiográficos de la autora que, al igual que en la inolvidable y aplaudida Estupor y temblores, que fue galardonada con el Grand Prix de la Academia Francesa, construye aquí una trama original, de poética anfibia, que vuelve a deslumbrarnos con fogonazos de humor descarnado e impactante.

El mundo de Mariana Enriquez no tiene por qué ser el nuestro, y, sin embargo, lo termina siendo. Bastan pocas frases para pisarlo, respirarlo y no olvidarlo gracias a una viveza emocional insólita. Con la cotidianidad hecha pesadilla, el lector se despierta abatido, perturbado por historias e imágenes que jamás conseguirá sacarse de la cabeza.

Story
La primera edicion de "Lolita" apareció en París en 1955, publicada por Olympia Press, una editorial con acreditada gama de pornográfica. La novela fue prohibida en Francia y en Inglaterra, y hasta tres años más tarde no pudo publicarse en Estados Unidos. Aunque enseguida fue muy alabada por escritores como Lionel Trilling y Graham Greene, los adjetivos de "escandalosa", "inmoral", "decadente" y "ultrajante" acompañaron largo tiempo a "Lolita", actualmente ya considerada como una obra maestra indiscutible de la literatura universal.

Story
Un relato escalofriante, una historia real que nos sume en el estupor, que es un viaje al corazón del horror, un audiolibro excepcional que ha sido comparado con "A sangre fría" de Truman Capote. El 9 de enero de 1993, Jean-Claude Romand mató a su mujer, sus hijos, sus padres e intentó, sin éxito, darse muerte. La investigación reveló que no era médico, tal como pretendía y, cosa aún más difícil de creer, tampoco era otra cosa. Mentía desde los dieciocho años. A punto de verse descubierto, prefirió suprimir a aquellos cuya mirada no hubiera podido soportar.

Critic reviews
"Mezclando las referencias bíblicas con su experiencia personal, Nothomb nos invita a una relectura de los axiomas fundamentales pasados por el tamiz de su capacidad para inventar."
-- A. Lemasson, Magazine Littéraire
"El atrevimiento de Amélie Nothomb, su gravedad, servidos con un humor feroz y una escritura desprovista de cualquier efecto, consiguen una adhesión sin restricciones."
-- Michel Abescat, Télérama
"Su lucidez, su inteligencia, su apacible locura producen un efecto maravilloso y su humor borra la crueldad del testimonio y la ambición del proyecto."
-- Hugo Marsan, Le Monde
"Qué divertido resulta descubrir esta Metafísica tan alegre, tan melancólica."
-- Jean-Franyois Josselin, Le Nouvel Observateur

There's no place like home for the holidays ... especially for Lesley Carver.

Lesley longs to build a life here, working at the cafe, selling her handmade ornaments and ... er, apparently reviving her high school crush on her best friend’s older brother. Only one problem, her mom wants her to leave Hickory Falls far behind.
