Encuadernación de tapa blanda. Zustand: Excelente. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Excelente. Iván Demitrius Kafallo Crónicas profanas (Sudamericana, 1996) Con una estética deliberadamente oscura casi de códice profanado, Crónicas profanas propone una novela de aliento confesional y de fuga: la odisea de Andro, un hombre que rompe con su origen y se juega la vida para escapar de Bulgaria bajo uno de los regímenes más violentos del bloque soviético. La trama funciona, a la vez, como historia de amor y como relato de búsqueda: identidad, pertenencia, lengua, memoria, y ese precio íntimo que se paga cuando uno decide "salirse" del mundo que lo formó. En esta edición, Sudamericana acompaña el texto con un diseño de cubierta de fuerte impronta expresionista, muy propio de ciertas apuestas editoriales de los noventa: el libro se presenta como un objeto narrativo con clima, con atmósfera, con una marca visual que dialoga con la experiencia del exilio y la fractura. La traducción está atribuida a Cecilia Absatz y las ilustraciones a Claude Vandelli. Para coleccionistas y lectores atentos al mapa editorial argentino, el sello importa: Editorial Sudamericana es una casa histórica fundada en Buenos Aires en 1939 por un núcleo de intelectuales y editores que influyó de manera decisiva en la circulación de literatura en castellano durante décadas, y hoy continúa como sello dentro de Penguin Random House. En ese marco, Crónicas profanas aparece como una pieza singular dentro de su catálogo: una novela marcada por la experiencia del desarraigo, con una construcción narrativa que apuesta por el pulso vital antes que por la comodidad del relato lineal.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. This new novel by the author of the critically acclaimed Profane Chronicle is destined to be belaureled for its splendor of excess and for the glory of wielding bushelfuls of wit and wisdom, words fiery and final, esoteric and obscure, crackling with sibylline meanings, and lovingly collected in a 30-page Lexicon as part of the book. Male-Female polarity is the prime focus of this outrageous and shockingly graphic novel, and it is bound to scandalize the dull and dour, all to the delight of those seeking to read the previously untold or unprintable. As a book about books and a novel within a novel, the work charts the journey of a writer driven by a relentless and ecstatic pursuit of writing the ultimate literary novel: profound, philosophical and demanding, and also quirky and ribald, an erotic romp as a lusory, chamfered challenge to seriousness. He is offering to the reader his own flow of knowledge infused with rebellion and radicalism, both of which are necessary for any art to be taken to the extreme. For only in excess can one find liberty, de Sade declared, and only by postulating the impossible does an artist achieve the possible, wrote Goethe. Art is always ahead of acquired forms of culture. Restraint, clinging to a safe world where everything is clear and self-evident is what prevents a writer from entering that zone of the exclusive extreme where his work becomes timeless. That writer is Serge, a European intellectual/sensualist. The story is told by a narrator/reader, Mac, a linguistics grad now a bookseller-an echoing, unwavering and dominant voice that neither defends nor condemns Serge the artist who has chosen "to celebrate the absurd over the chaste, the unusual over the conventional, with energy over reason." But Mac is not really the reader, he is the reading, that which communicates with itself. Having bestowed the right to say "I" to Mac and the "He" to Serge, leaves the actual author free to vanish and be no longer tethered by convention, now freely choosing when he wants to come in, and ever so surreptitiously be the voice of this essential reading which to Serge, his protagonist, is a sacred rite, part drama and part liturgy that combines various genres and art forms throughout the novel. Just as impressionism reached its highest point in Paul Varlaine's Romances sans Paroles, so has in this novel voluptuousness reached sublime heights, brooding cynically over the tyranny of desire. Woman, with all her previous mutations, is here not a capturable butterfly but Psyche, all mystery, as mysterious as the night sky of distant stars, and all we learn of her is but to deepen the mystery. To the would-be captor she is Fate, an unconscious part of what is eternal in things; she is a weaver of illusions, the wickeder the more alluring, whose flesh is as addictive as it is dangerous, a woman who is all hot and fierce, of the devilishly fascinating ferocity of a tigress that invites a caressing touch; she is to be reverenced as is Saint Theresa for the august heat of her rapture, and he who loves her must not desire that she should love in return. There is not a page we turn without the faintest thrill of curiosity, just as there is hardly a sentence we can read without pleasure for its literary savor, its ironic elegance, furious sensuality or feverish devotion. Like the poet Milton before him, Kafallo has in an extraordinary degree the gift of assimilating all that he found, all that he borrowed, and delivers it with the force of a sledge hammer that strikes an anvil and shoots forth sparks of savage fury. Intellect and emotion are the molders of his style. In the words of Arthur Symons, the rhythm of poetry is musical, and the rhythm of prose physiological-Kafallo has ingeniously made use of both. He rejects simplicity with an elaborate and conscious search after heavily colored meanings Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. In Profane Chronicles Kafallo weaves together a lush, exotic tale of sexual obsession and ecstasy. Two lovers linked by letters only. "As in a diary, she'd confide to him her innermost feelings, which like those of an Ibsen heroine seemed born out of the dark and harsh arctic nights of longing." To him, stuck behind the Iron Curtain, she represents the Ideal Feminine and Freedom rolled in one. His perilous quest to meet the woman preordained by Fate turns into a mythical voyage crossing borders, bridging centuries of barbaric lore. a descent, charting past lives, into the caverns of the metaphysical. Through a door left ajar one is lured into a world where the lyrical and the profane coexist, reason and unreason overlap, the grotesque morphs into the hilarious. Unmuted mating cries-cries never before documented-are filigreed into the fabric of prose by Kafallo's seductive narrative voice. As visceral as it is cerebral, Kafallo's writing generates its own heat, melting an almost savage expression of desire together with a perfect control of meter, to create a provocative and tantalizing literature full of dalliance and delight.
