Overview
La primera novela de María Negroni, inédita hasta ahora en España, con la que reinventó el antiguo mito del viaje y abrió las fronteras del lenguaje.
«Después de leer El sueño de Úrsula, tiendo a creer que el viaje es una sintaxis escarpada, el destino es un punto de partida, y lo incierto, la cartografía de la literatura». - Adriana Amante
El sueño de Úrsula retoma una fascinante leyenda medieval: para no casarse, la hija y heredera de un rey, en el pico de sus ambiciones vitales, conduce a otras once vírgenes desde Cornwallis hasta Roma. Aetherius, su pretendiente, la sigue. En cada una de estas mujeres extraordinarias aparecen los conflictos de las mujeres de hoy —la permanente ambivalencia: el odio y el miedo a desear amar—.
En una época en que el mundo, tal como ahora, era un catálogo de hambrunas, pestes y guerras, María Negroni ha construido una épica femenina deslumbrante. Sus personajes son trágicos, vulnerables y valerosos; su lenguaje y estilo, un tour de force. El «viaje hacia la luz» que Úrsula emprende es la búsqueda de la identidad y de la liberación moral.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Ursula's Dream is María Negroni’s debut novel—unpublished in Spain until now—in which she reinvents the ancient myth of the journey and pushes the boundaries of language.
“After reading The Dream of Ursula, I am inclined to believe that the journey is a rugged syntax, the destination a point of departure, and uncertainty the true map of literature.”—Adriana Amante
Drawing on a captivating medieval legend, the novel follows a king’s daughter and heir who, determined to avoid marriage at the height of her ambitions, leads eleven virgins on a journey from Cornwall to Rome. Her suitor, Aetherius, follows close behind. Within each of these remarkable women emerge the same conflicts faced by women today—an enduring ambivalence shaped by fear, desire, and the longing for love.
Set in a world plagued by famine, disease, and war—strikingly reminiscent of our own—Negroni crafts a dazzling feminine epic. Her characters are tragic, vulnerable, and courageous, while her language and style are nothing short of a tour de force. Ursula’s “journey toward the light” becomes a profound search for identity and moral liberation.
