Missing (Spanish Edition) (in Spanish)
Fuguet, Alberto
Synopsis "Missing (Spanish Edition) (in Spanish)"
Edición revisada de la elogiada novela en que Fuguet busca a su tío perdido en Estados Unidos. Por años Alberto Fuguet escuchó relatos difusos o esquivos acerca del paradero de su tío Carlos, que un día desapareció sin más del ámbito familiar. Con el vago indicio de que quizás estaría perdido en Estados Unidos, el sobrino, convertido ya en un escritor reconocido, inició una investigación en la que mezcló hechos y elucubraciones, intuiciones y recuerdos. Missing, el libro que registra todo, no es tanto un thriller, pues el tío aparece pronto y su voz se toma la novela, sino una cautivante indagación autobiográfica y una exploración en la voluntad humana de desaparecer, en las derivas del fracaso. Un viaje por los caminos no pavimentados del sueño americano. Esta edición incluye un epílogo que cuenta el detrás-de-escena de la novela y cierta farsa periodística que rodeó su aparición. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A revised edition of the praised novel in which Alberto Fuguet searches for his lost uncle in the United States. For years Alberto Fuguet listened to vague and elusive stories about the whereabouts of his uncle Carlos, who one day simply disappeared. With the unclear indication that he might be lost in the United States, his nephew, who at that time was already a well-known writer, began an investigation in which he mixed facts and theories, intuitions and memories. Missing, the book that gathers all his findings, is not so much a thriller, since the uncle appears very soon in the story and his voice overtakes the novel, but a captivating autobiographical inquiry and an examination into the human will to disappear, into the drifts of failure. A journey down the unpaved roads of the American dream. This edition includes an epilogue that tells the behind-the-scenes of the novel and a certain journalistic farce that surrounded its first arrival.
