About the Book

Tras Crímenes y Culpa, el jurista alemán Ferdinand von Schirach regresa con Castigo.

Basada en casos reales, Crímenes, la primera obra de Ferdinand von Schirach, ganadora del prestigioso Premio Kleist y uno de los mayores éxitos de los últimos años en Alemania, fascinó y conmovió por la honestidad y lucidez con que planteaba la búsqueda de la verdad en los procesos criminales. Culpa, una colección de punzantes miniaturas sobre el insondable comportamiento humano, mereció de nuevo el elogio de la crítica y los lectores. Ahora, Von Schirach vuelve a convertir doce casos de su dilatada trayectoria profesional en sendas piezas de orfebrería literaria que tratan, con su aguzado instinto narrativo y su particular sentido del humor, las consecuencias penales y morales del castigo.

Una mujer que asume la culpa del delito de parricidio cometido por su marido, los efectos catastróficos de un juicio cancelado tras declarar no apto a un miembro del jurado popular y un hombre con las funciones de la corteza cerebral dañadas al haber resbalado con el collar de perlas de su amante son algunos de los sustanciosos argumentos de estas turbadoras historias rebosantes de ingenio y reflexiones agudas sobre la naturaleza humana.

Al tiempo que resalta los elementos más imponderables del poder judicial y pone el foco en los sentimientos más frágiles y secretos que anidan en nuestro interior, Castigo nos habla de lo que sucede tras una sentencia firme, un hipotético accidente o un crimen planificado. En algunos relatos, el castigo resulta fortuito pero oportuno, mientras que en otros adquiere forma de venganza deliberada. Y aunque en ocasiones éste sea injusto y doloroso, puede significar la única vía hacia la salvación.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

After Crimes and Guilt, German jurist Ferdinand von Schirach now offers Punishment.

Crimes, Ferdinand von Schirach's first work, fascinated and moved his readers by the honesty and lucidity with which he posed the search for truth in criminal proceedings. Guilt, a collection of stories about unfathomable human behavior, was received with great praise by both critics and readers. Now, Von Schirach turns twelve cases from his long professional career back into pieces of literary gold that, with their keen narrative instinct and their unique sense of humor, touch upon the penal and moral consequences of punishment.

A woman who takes the blame for the parricide committed by her husband, the catastrophic effects of a trial declared a mistrial after pronouncing a member of the jury unfit, and a man who damages his brain functions after having slipped with his lover's pearl necklace are some of the themes in these disturbing stories overflowing with wit and sharp reflections on human nature.

While highlighting the most unknown elements of the judiciary and focusing on the most fragile and secretive feelings that lie within us, Punishment narrates what happens after a final sentence, a hypothetical accident, or a planned crime.
