Overview
La escritora bielorrusa Premio Nobel de Literatura 2015 da voz a aquellas personas que sobrevivieron al desastre de Chernóbil y que fueron silenciadas y olvidadas por su propio gobierno. Este libro les da la oportunidad de contar su historia.
Chernóbil, 1986. «Cierra las ventanillas y acuéstate. Hay un incendio en la central. Vendré pronto.» Esto fue lo último que un joven bombero dijo a su esposa antes de acudir al lugar de la explosión. No regresó. Y en cierto modo, ya no volvió a verle, pues en el hospital su marido dejó de ser su marido. Todavía hoy ella se pregunta si su historia trata sobre el amor o la muerte.
Voces de Chernóbil está planteado como si fuera una tragedia griega, con coros y unos héroes marcados por un destino fatal, cuyas voces fueron silenciadas durante muchos años por una polis representada aquí por la antigua URSS. Pero, a diferencia de una tragedia griega, no hubo posibilidad de catarsis.
«[...] por su escritura polifónica, que es un monumento al valor y al sufrimiento en nuestro tiempo.», palabras del Jurado de la Academia Sueca al otorgar a la autora el Premio Nobel de Literatura 2015.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The Belarusian writer and winner of the 2015 Nobel Prize in Literature gives voice to those who survived the Chernobyl disaster and were silenced and forgotten by their own government. This book offers them the chance to tell their story.
Chernobyl, 1986. “Close the windows and lie down. There’s a fire at the plant. I’ll be back soon.” These were the last words a young firefighter said to his wife before heading to the site of the explosion. He never returned. And in a way, she never truly saw him again, for in the hospital her husband ceased to be her husband. Even today, she wonders whether her story is one of love or of death.
Voices from Chernobyl is conceived like a Greek tragedy, with choruses and heroes marked by a fatal destiny, whose voices were silenced for many years by a polis represented here by the former USSR. But unlike a Greek tragedy, there was no possibility of catharsis.
“[…] for her polyphonic writing, which stands as a monument to courage and suffering in our time,”
—The Swedish Academy Jury, on awarding the author the 2015 Nobel Prize in Literature
