Product Details
Overview
A 60 años de su primera publicación, Farabeuf, la obra más emblemática de Salvador Elizondo, sigue siendo la novela mexicana experimental e inclasificable por excelencia.
Un cirujano hace una misteriosa visita a domicilio, la enfermera que lo espera dibuja un signo ambiguo en la ventana; el hombre fotografía un suplicio chino, la mujer camina junto al mar… Estas y otras imágenes conforman el montaje literario de un instante capaz de contener dualidades, memorias propias y ajenas, meditaciones tenaces, sentimientos profundos e imágenes persistentes que también son, tal vez, recuerdos inventados.
Una obra que asombra a quien la lee tanto por su audacia formal como por su fuerza evocadora y poética. Un relato fascinante de la suspensión del tiempo que encumbró a su autor como una de las voces más singulares y trascendentes de la literatura contemporánea de México.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Sixty years after its first publication, Farabeuf, Salvador Elizondo’s most emblematic work, remains the quintessential experimental and unclassifiable Mexican novel.
A surgeon makes a mysterious house call, the nurse awaiting him draws an ambiguous sign on the window; the man photographs a Chinese torture, the woman walks by the sea… These and other images form the literary montage of an instant capable of containing dualities, personal and collective memories, tenacious meditations, profound feelings, and persistent images that may also be invented recollections.
A work that astonishes readers both for its formal audacity and its evocative, poetic power. A fascinating tale of suspended time that elevated its author as one of the most singular and transcendent voices in contemporary Mexican literature.
