  • Overview

    «Lo absorbió el frío, sus despeñaderos azules, un precipicio hondo, solemne, como de catedral».

    En un lugar donde la neblina y el aguacero libran una batalla a muerte, Jeremías busca sin tregua a su nieta. Pero toda amenaza con impedir el encuentro: la plaga de ratones muertos que inundan las calles, la inescrutable dueña del hotelucho donde se hospeda y su asistente enana, el albino siniestro que guarda un secreto, los niños que juegan fútbol con cabezas, la marea de monjas que vaticinan el horror.

    Llena de símbolos oníricos que resaltan el ambiente ominoso del lugar, En el lejero recrea ese terreno inhóspito de la violencia, el secuestro y la desaparición, donde el abismo siempre será insalvable.
     
    «La indescifrable, la más insólita y poética, enigmática novela con características neogóticas publicada en Colombia a lo largo de toda su historia literaria. Nunca entenderemos cuál es la naturaleza real de este pueblo sin nombre, diseñado con neblina y vértigo». -Umberto Senegal
     
    «Suave en su voz y feroz en su impacto». -The Independent

    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    “The cold absorbed him: its blue cliffs, a steep precipice, solemn, like a cathedral.”

    In a place where the fog and the rain battle each other to the death, Jeremías searches tirelessly for his kidnapped granddaughter. He encounters nothing but obstacles: the plague of dead mice littering the streets, the inscrutable proprietress of the rundown hotel where he finds lodging and her midget assistant, the sinister albino who hides a secret, the children playing soccer with severed heads, the flock of nuns preaching doom.
     
    Replete with oneiric symbolism that underscores the ominous atmosphere of its setting, Far Far Away depicts an inhospitable landscape of violence, abductions and disappearances where the abyss is inexorable.
