About the Book

«Cada hombre mira su pila de madera con una especie de afecto.» Henry David ThoreauCortar y apilar la madera es un pasatiempo en el que el mundo parece cobrar de nuevo sentido. La relación del ser humano con el fuego es tan antigua, tan universal, que parece que al aprender sobre la madera se conoce la vida con más profundidad.Quién mejor para compartir esa sabiduría ancestral que un experto de Escandinavia, región donde el clima extremo ha obligado a generaciones a perfeccionar sus habilidades con herramientas, madera y calor; un gran escritor que, junto a Karl Knausgaard, ha puesto a la literatura noruega en el foco de los lectores. Lars Mytting transmite las enseñanzas de leñadores experimentados, aficionados, investigadores y profesionales de la cultura arbórea y de la combustión. Ha visitado algunas de las zonas más frías de Noruega, se ha detenido en los cruces de caminos en busca de los tonos de las motosierras y de las anécdotas e historias. Con humor, cariño y precisión, Lars Mytting nos ofrece un retrato de la tradición noruega de hacer fuego con leña; una tradición en la que cada generación ha ido transmitiendo esta ciencia y pasión.

El libro de la madera es en parte una guía sobre las mejores prácticas para el uso de una fuente de energía que se renueva y, por otra, un ejercicio de meditación sobre el instinto humano de supervivencia. Este manual sobre el arte de cortar, apilar y secar madera a la manera escandinava ha tenido ya eco en el mundo entero.
Aunque todavía no comparta esa pasión por la madera este libro es la lectura perfecta para un día junto al fuego.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
The latest Scandinavian publishing phenomenon is not a Stieg Larsson-like thriller; it's a book about chopping, stacking, and burning wood that has sold more than 200,000 copies in Norway and Sweden and has been a fixture on the bestseller lists there for more than a year.

Norwegian Wood provides useful advice on the rustic hows and whys of taking care of your heating needs, but it's also a thoughtful attempt to understand man's age-old predilection for stacking wood and passion for open fires.

An intriguing window into the exoticism of Scandinavian culture, the book also features enough inherently interesting facts and anecdotes and inspired prose to make it universally appealing.
About the Author: Lars Mytting (Fåvang, Noruega, 1968) trabajó como periodista y editor antes de dedicarse por completo a la escritura. En 2006 publicó su primera novela, Hestekrefter, que fue un éxito de ventas en toda Escandinavia, y en 2010 Vårofferet. El libro de la madera. Una vida en los bosques (Alfaguara, 2016, Libro del Año según Cinco Días) vendió más de 300.000 ejemplares solo en Suecia y Noruega, y se convirtió en una serie de televisión de gran audiencia. En el Reino Unido alcanzó los 100.000 ejemplares vendidos y obtuvo el British Industry Award. Los dieciséis árboles del Somme, ganadora del Premio de los Libreros de Noruega, es su última novela, que está siendo traducida en doce países y será llevada a la televisión por la productora de The Imitation Game.
