About the Book

Una obra magistral que parte de un hecho histórico para adentrarse de lleno en la historia con letra minúscula.

Una de las novelas imprescindibles del autor estadounidense.

Cuando el renombrado héroe de la aviación y fanático aislacionista Charles A. Lindbergh obtuvo una victoria aplastante sobre Franklin Roosevelt en las elecciones presidenciales de 1940, el miedo invadió todos los hogares judíos de Norteamérica. Lindbergh no sólo había culpado públicamente a los judíos de empujar al país hacia una guerra absurda con la Alemania nazi, en un discurso transmitido por radio a toda la nación, sino que, tras acceder al cargo como trigésimo tercer presidente de los Estados Unidos, negoció un «acuerdo» cordial con Adolf Hitler, cuyas conquista de Europa y virulenta política antisemita pareció aceptar sin dificultad.
Lo que entonces sucedió en Norteamérica es el marco histórico de este nuevo y sorprendente libro de Philip Roth, ganador del premio Pulitzer, quien nos cuenta cómo le fue a su familia en Newark, así como a un millón de familias similares en todo el país, durante los amenazantes años de la presidencia de Lindbergh, cuando los ciudadanos norteamericanos que eran judíos tenían todas las razones para esperar lo peor.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Never more relevant than now, this national bestseller will challenge all who believe that "it can't happen here."

"A terrific political novel . . . Sinister, vivid, dreamlike . . . creepily plausible. . . You turn the pages, astonished and frightened." -- The New York Times Book Review

In an extraordinary feat of narrative invention, Philip Roth imagines an alternate history where Franklin D. Roosevelt loses the 1940 presidential election to heroic aviator and rabid isolationist Charles A. Lindbergh. Shortly thereafter, Lindbergh negotiates a cordial "understanding" with Adolf Hitler, while the new government embarks on a program of folksy anti-Semitism.

For one boy growing up in Newark, Lindbergh's election is the first in a series of ruptures that threaten to destroy his small, safe corner of America-and with it, his mother, his father, and his older brother.

About the Author: Philip Roth (1933-2018) obtuvo el Premio Pulitzer en 1997 por Pastoral Americana. En 1998 recibió la Medalla Nacional de las Artes en la Casa Blanca y, en 2002, el máximo galardón de la Academia Americana de las Artes y Letras, la Medalla de Oro de Narrativa, previamente otorgada a John Dos Passos, William Faulkner y Saul Bellow, entre otros. Ha sido galardonado en dos ocasiones con el National Book Award, el PEN/Faulkner Award y el National Book Critics Circle Award.

En 2005, La conjura contra América recibió el premio de la Society of American Historians, concedido a «su destacada novela histórica en 2003-2004 sobre un tema histórico norteamericano» y el Premio W.H. Smith por el mejor libro del año, convirtiendo a Roth en el primer escritor en ganarlo dos veces en los cuarenta y seis años de historia del premio.

En 2005, Roth se convirtió en el tercer escritor norteamericano vivo cuya obra publicó la Library of America en una edición completa y definitiva. En 2011 recibió la National Humanities Medal en la Casa Blanca, y fue nombrado posteriormente el cuarto ganador del Man Booker International Prize. En 2012 ganó el máximo galardón de España, el Premio Príncipe de Asturias, y en 2013 ganó el más prestigioso de Francia, el Comandante de la Legión de Honor.
