Millas, Juan Jose
Synopsis "La Vida a Ratos / Life in Intervals (in Spanish)"
Vuelve el ingenio de Millás con el diario divertido y surrealista de un neurótico brillante.En La vida a ratos el lector es tan protagonista como el narrador, porque descubre en secreto un relato que, en la ficción, no ha sido creado para ser conocido por nadie más que aquel que lo escribe.Es el diario de más de tres años de vida de un personaje -curiosamente también llamado Juan José Millás-, que se muestra tan libre, tan neurótico, y divertido, e irónico e hipocondriaco como solo nos mostramos cuando nadie nos ve. Las visitas a la psicoanalista, el taller de escritura, los paseos por una ciudad que no deja de colocarle ante situaciones sorpresivas, la familia, los amigos... Todo es normal, todo parece anodino hasta que, al volver una esquina de la realidad, aparece lo extraordinario, lo surrealista.Y nos deslumbra. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Millás's genius is back with the fun, surrealist diary of a brilliant neurotic. In La vida a ratos / Life in Intervals, the reader is as much a protagonist as the narrator, because you secretly discover a tale that presumably wasn't created to be seen by anyone but its writer. It is the diary of more than three years in the life of a character--curiously also named Juan José Millas--who seems as free, as neurotic, as fun, and as ironic and hypochondriac as we are only when nobody else can see us. The therapist visits, the writing workshop, the walks through a city that never stops placing him in surprising situations, his family, his friends... everything is normal; everything seems bland until, turning a corner from reality, the extraordinary--the surreal--appears.
