About the Book

EL NUEVO LIBRO DE BERNARDO ATXAGA, PREMIO NACIONAL DE LAS LETRAS ESPAÑOLAS Y PREMIO LIBER 2021

«Recrea un mundo nuevo y fresco con una originalidad poco común en la literatura española contemporánea». --The New York Times

«Atxaga sabe entretener, conmover y dar a la autobiografía todo el encanto de lo ficticio». --J. A. Masoliver Ródenas, La Vanguardia

Dos hermanos se enfrentan juntos a la maldad colectiva; un hombre revive la muerte del hijo de su amigo a la luz del LSD; en el cementerio de Obaba-Ugarte, dos conferenciantes pronuncian ante la multitud congregada una delirante charla sobre la vida y la muerte; un búho resulta ser una pieza indispensable para resolver varios crímenes.

En Desde el otro lado, que parece narrado por voces que proceden de la propia naturaleza, late el mejor Atxaga, el que emociona a los lectores desde la publicación de Obabakoak hasta hoy: el escritor que cuenta la vida y la muerte como dos caras de una misma cosa, la cadena de afectos que nos unen los unos a los otros, la sensibilidad de los animales, la violencia, la maldad, la pérdida y la soledad del ser humano.

En los relatos de este libro se cuenta una única historia, la nuestra, la de todos los que hemos sido, somos y seremos. Y junto a la vida, en ellos tiene también cabida lo fantástico, aquello que sucede en los márgenes difusos que separan la realidad del sueño, de la alucinación o de la revelación.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

THE NEW BERNARDO ATXAGA BOOK, NATIONAL PRIZE FOR SPANISH LITERATURE AND LIBER AWARD, 2021.

"He recreates a fresh new world, with an originality uncommon in Spanish contemporary literature." --The New York Times

"Atxaga knows how to entertain, move, and bestow autobiographies with the charm of fiction." --J. A. Masoliver Ródenas, La Vanguardia

Two brothers face collective evil together; one man relives the death of his friend's son in the light of LSD; at the cemetery in Obaba-Ugarte, two speakers give a delirious talk about life and death before a congregated crowd; an owl turns out to be an essential clue to solving several crimes.

In From the Other Side, which seems narrated by voices surging from nature itself, we hear the best Atxaga, the author that thrills his readers since the publication of Obabakoak and until today--the writer that portrays life and death as two sides of the same thing, the chain of affections that unites us all together, the sensitivity of animals, the violence, the evilness, the loss, and the loneliness of human beings.

In the tales collected in this book there is a unique story, our story, the story of all of us who have been, are, and will be. And next to life, in them there is also a place for fantasy, that which happens in the fuzzy margins between dream and reality, between hallucination and revelation.
