About the Book

La nueva novela del Premio Nobel Orhan Pamuk. Una historia de amor y parricidio en el Estambul de 1980.

«Hoy por hoy, después de tantos años, los celos me impelen a no revelar su nombre, ni siquiera a mis lectores. Pero debo contar fielmente lo que ocurrió a continuación.»

En las afueras del Estambul de 1985, un maestro pocero y su joven aprendiz son contratados para encontrar agua en una llanura estéril. Mientras excavan sin suerte metro a metro, nace entre ellos un vínculo casi paterno-filial, una dependencia mutua que se verá alterada cuando el adolescente se enamore perdidamente de una misteriosa mujer de pelo rojo: un primer amor que marcará el resto de sus días.

El viaje de este joven hacia la edad adulta se acompasa al de una Turquía que ha ido transformándose de forma irreversible, y le sirve a Orhan Pamuk para regresar a los temas que han dominado una buena parte de su obra. En esta mezcla de fábula, relato mitológico y tragedia contemporánea, el autor vuelve a poner frente a frente las culturas de Occidente y Oriente explorando dos de sus mitos fundacionales: el Edipo Rey de Sófocles y la historia de Rostam y Sohrab, inmortalizada por el poeta persa Ferdousí en la epopeya del Shahname o Libro de los Reyes. Ambas tragedias discurren por debajo de una trama absorbente, en una novela de ideas que profundiza, entre otros temas, en la familia y la figura paterna, reafirmando al premio Nobel como uno de los grandes escritores de nuestra época.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From the Nobel Prize winner and best-selling author of Snow and My Name Is Red, a fable of fathers and sons and the desires that come between them.

On the outskirts of a town thirty miles from Istanbul, a master well digger and his young apprentice are hired to find water on a barren plain. As they struggle in the summer heat, excavating without luck meter by meter, the two will develop a filial bond neither has known before--not the poor middle-aged bachelor nor the middle-class boy whose father disappeared after being arrested for politically subversive activities. The pair will come to depend on each other and exchange stories reflecting disparate views of the world. But in the nearby town, where they buy provisions and take their evening break, the boy will find an irresistible diversion. The Red-Haired Woman, an alluring member of a travelling theatre company, catches his eye and seems as fascinated by him as he is by her. The young man's wildest dream will be realized, but, when in his distraction a horrible accident befalls the well digger, the boy will flee, returning to Istanbul. Only years later will he discover whether he was in fact responsible for his master's death and who the redheaded enchantress was.

A beguiling mystery tale of family and romance, of east and west, tradition and modernity, by one of the great storytellers of our time.
About the Author: Orhan Pamuk nació en Estambul, Turquía, en 1952. Premio Nobel de Literatura 2006, realizó estudios de arquitectura y periodismo, y ha pasado largas temporadas en Estados Unidos, en las universidades de Iowa y Columbia. Es autor de las novelas: La casa del silencio (Debolsillo 2006), El castillo blanco (Literatura Mondadori 2007), El libro negro (Debolsillo, 2008), La vida nueva (Debolsillo, 2009), Me llamo Rojo (Debolsillo, 2009) y Nieve (Debolsillo, 2011), así como de los libros de prosa Estambul. Ciudad y recuerdos (Literatura Mondadori 2006) y La maleta de mi padre (Literatura Mondadori 2007) y la colección de ensayos Otros colores (Literatura Mondadori, 2008). Su éxito mundial se desencadenó a partir de los elogios que John Updike dedicó a la novela El castillo blanco. Desde entonces ha obtenido numerosos reconocimientos internacionales: el premio al Mejor Libro Extranjero en Francia, el premio Grinzane Cavour en Italia y el premio internacional IMPAC de Irlanda, los tres por Me llamo Rojo. En 2005 recibió el Premio de la Paz de los libreros alemanes. Con la publicación de Nieve, novela por la que en 2006 fue galardonado con el Prix Médicis Étranger, Orhan Pamuk pasó a ser objetivo predilecto de los ataques de la prensa nacionalista turca. Con la obtención del premio Nobel de Literatura en 2006 su proyección internacional se consolidó definitivamente, y sus libros han sido traducidos a más de cuarenta idiomas.
