Overview
«No veía nada debajo del agua, aunque abriera los ojos: una barrera viscosa, negra, fría, que por el afán de huir me parecía una sopa de aceite en la que mis brazos y mis piernas me hacían avanzar muy despacio, así los moviera con todas mis fuerzas.»
Esta novela gira en torno a La Oculta, una finca escondida en las montañas de Colombia. Pilar, Eva y Antonio Ángel son los últimos herederos de esta tierra que ha sobrevivido a varias generaciones de la familia. En ella han pasado los momentos más felices de su vida, pero han tenido que enfrentarse también al asedio de la violencia y el terror, al desasosiego y a la huida.
A partir de las voces de los tres hermanos, del recuento de sus amores, miedos, deseos y esperanzas, y con un deslumbrante paisaje como telón de fondo, Héctor Abad Faciolince ilumina en La Oculta las vicisitudes de una familia y de un pueblo, así como el momento en que está a punto de perderse el paraíso sobre el cual construyeron sus realidades y sus sueños.
Una mirada íntima y transgresora a una sociedad pujante y tradicionalista, que confirma a Héctor Abad como uno de los grandes escritores de la literatura latinoamericana actual.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
«I could not see anything under the water, even if I opened my eyes: a thick gooey, black, cold barrier that, due to my desire to escape, felt like an oil soup in which my arms and legs made me move very slowly, even if I moved them with all my strength."
This novel is set around La Oculta, a farm hidden in the mountains of Colombia. Pilar, Eva, and Antonio Ángel are the last heirs of this land that has survived several generations in the family. In La Oculta they have spent the happiest moments of their lives, but they have also had to face the siege of violence and terror, restlessness, and an escape.
Through the three brothers, their loves, fears, desires, and hopes, and with a dazzling landscape as a backdrop, Héctor Abad Faciolince highlights the vicissitudes of a family and a town, as well as the exact moment when the paradise on which they built their realities and dreams is about to be lost.
An intimate and transgressive look at a thriving and traditionalist society, which confirms Héctor Abad as one of the great writers in Latin American literature today.
