About the Book

Me encanta la serie sobre Matthew Scudder, y me encantan los cuentos...y ésta es la colección completa de los cuentos protagonizados por Scudder. Uno de los grandes de todos los tiempos es "A la luz de la madrugada", ganador del Premio Edgar Allan Poe.-Otto Penzler, Los Angeles Times, Los diez libros más deseados del 2011Mi favorito, creo, es el cuento que lleva el título de la colección, "La noche y la música", donde Matt y su esposa Elaine se encuentran platicando y escuchando música en varios lugares en su barrio de Nueva York. Este cuento es tan elegante y evocativo que me recuerda los relatos breves de Irwin Shaw...También es de este tenor el cuento final del libro, el recientemente escrito y bien nombrado "Una última noche en Grogan's", que tampoco es un cuento de misterio o de crimen. No sé si Block vaya a escribir más acerca de Matt Scudder, y es posible que ni él mismo lo sepa, pero "Una última noche en Grogan's" está plasmado de un bello sentimiento elegíaco, y si resulta ser el adiós a la serie, es una buena despedida.-James Reasoner, Rough EdgesLawrence Block ha escrito 17 novelas protagonizadas por Matthew Scudder, las cuales han conquistado corazones de lectores en el mundo entero, y de paso un tropel de trofeos, incluyendo el Premio Edgar Allan Poe (EUA), el Shamus (EUA), el Philip Marlowe (Alemania) y el Halcón Maltés (Japón). Y Matthew Scudder es en gran medida el responsable de los galardones a la carrera artística que le han sido otorgados a Block: el Premio Gran Maestro (Mystery Writers of America), el Premio The Eye (Private Eye Writers of America) y el Puñal de Diamante Cartier (UK Crime Writers Association, Reino Unido).Pero Scudder es también la estrella en muchos relatos cortos, y aquí están todos, empezando por un par de novelas breves de finales de los años 70 (Salió por la ventana y Una vela para la vagabunda), continuando con A la luz de la madrugada (Premio Edgar Allan Poe) y El Misericordioso Ángel de la Muerte (Premio Shamus), hasta culminar con Una última noche en Grogan's, un cuento conmovedor y elegíaco que nunca antes se había publicado. Las narraciones breves mantuvieron viva a la serie en varias ocasiones cuando la corriente de las novelas se vio interrumpida, y los cuentos llevaron a Scudder por diferentes caminos y nos mostraron regiones de su mundo que no aparecen en los mapas.Algunos de estos cuentos aparecieron en revistas, tales como Alfred Hitchcock, Ellery Queen y Playboy. El microrrelato que le da su título a la colección, "La noche y la música", fue escrito para un festival de jazz en la Ciudad de Nueva York; otro, "Mick Ballou mirando la pantalla en blanco", ha aparecido sólo en forma de texto para un folleto de edición limitada. Y el cuento final, donde Matt y Elaine están sentados ante una mesa junto con Mick y Kristin Ballou, dentro de un bar cerrado en el barrio conocido como la Cocina del Infierno, aparece por vez primera en este volumen.Varios de estos cuentos echan una mirada hacia atrás desde el tiempo en que fueron escritos, pues Scudder narra acontecimientos ocurridos durante su vida anterior, cuando era policía y compañero del legendario Vince Mahaffey, un detective del Departamento de Policía de Nueva York que vivía una vida doble. En Buscando a David Matt y Elaine están de vacaciones en Florencia, donde se topan con un hombre al que Matt arrestara décadas atrás; ahora por fin Matt descubre el motivo de un homicidio brutal.Junto con los nueve cuentos y las dos novelas cortas, La noche y la música incluye una lista de las diecisiete novelas en orden cronológico, más una nota del autor donde detalla los orígenes y datos bibliográficos de cada uno de los relatos breves.Brian Koppelman, eminente cineasta, guionista y director (Hombre solitario, Océano Trece, Rounders) y gran fan de Matt Scudder, le ha añadido sabor al guiso con una introducción.
