Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"dramatizes what is immediately familiar to people living in semi-modern societies of Asia and Latin America: the insidious links between politicians, religious figures and writers..." (Pankaj Mishra, TLS)

Reseña del editor:

During the course of a single night, Fr Sebasti-n Urrutia Lacroix, a Chilean priest, who is a member of Opus Dei, a literary critic and a mediocre poet, relives some of the crucial events of his life. He believes he is dying and in his feverish delirium various characters, both real and imaginary, appear to him as icy monsters, as if in sequences from a horror film. Thus we are given glimpses of the great poet Pablo Neruda, the German writer Ernst J-nger, General Pinochet, whom Fr Lacroix instructs in Marxist doctrine, as well as various members of the Chilean intelligentsia whose lives, during a period of political turbulence, have touched upon his.
