Ay, William / Oh William!
Ay, William / Oh William!
«Esta mujer que tanto me ha dado llenando mis horas de insomnio. - Elvira Lindo «Elizabeth Strout se consagra como la más magistral alumna de John Cheever y James Salter. - Rodrigo Fresán
Inesperadamente, Lucy Barton se convierte en confidente y apoyo de William, su exmarido, el hombre con el que ha tenido dos hijas ya adultas, pero que ahora es casi un desconocido presa de terrores nocturnos y empecinado en desvelar el secreto de su madre. Mientras su nuevo matrimonio tambalea, William quiere que Lucy lo acompañe en un viaje del que no volverá a ser el mismo. Cuántos sentimientos -celos, piedad, temor, ternura, decepción, extrañeza- caben en un matrimonio, incluso cuando ha terminado -si tal cosa es posible-? Y en el centro de esta historia, la voz indomable de Lucy Barton, su reflexión profunda y perenne sobre nuestra propia existencia: «Así es como funciona la vida. Todo lo que no sabemos hasta que ya es demasiado tarde . ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Finalist of the Booker Prize 2022 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Pulitzer Prize winner Elizabeth Strout explores the mysteries of marriage and the secrets we keep, as a former couple reckons with where they've come from--and what they've left behind.
NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKSOF THE YEAR BY The New York Times Book Review - The Washington Post - Time - NPR I would like to say a few things about my first husband, William. Lucy Barton is a writer, but her ex-husband, William, remains a hard man to read. William, she confesses, has always been a mystery to me. Another mystery is why the two have remained connected after all these years. They just are. So Lucy is both surprised and not surprised when William asks her to join him on a trip to investigate a recently uncovered family secret--one of those secrets that rearrange everything we think we know about the people closest to us. What happens next is nothing less than another example of what Hilary Mantel has called Elizabeth Strout's "perfect attunement to the human condition." There are fears and insecurities, simple joys and acts of tenderness, and revelations about affairs and other spouses, parents and their children. On every page of this e
