Product Details
- Tras el éxito de En busca de April, elegida como una de las mejores novelas del año (Qué Leer), continúa la saga con esta apasionante intriga que nos muestra a un Quirke más íntimo y confundido que nunca sobre el trasfondo del Dublín de los años cincuenta.Premio Príncipe de Asturias de las Letras 2014 a John Banville por «su inteligente, honda y original creación novelesca» y a su «otro yo, Benjamin Black, autor de turbadoras y críticas novelas policíacas.»Cuando el magnate de la prensa Richard Jewel aparece muerto en su casa de campo una calurosa mañana de verano, pocos lo lamentan. El doctor Quirke y el inspector Hackett no tardan en darse cuenta de que, lejos de tratarse de un posible suicidio, «Diamante Dick» ha sido asesinado.La investigación lleva a Quirke al orfanato de St. Christopher, donde vivió su infancia, y a frecuentar a Dannie, la problemática hermana de Jewell; a Carlton Sumner, el empresario rival, y a Françoise d'Aubigny, la elegante y misteriosa viuda.La crítica ha dicho...«John Banville/Benjamin Black es un maestro y su prosa, un deleite incesante.»Martin Amis«Si lo que ansías son misterios, y si las frases deslumbrantes te hacen sentir más renovado que dos semanas de vacaciones en la playa, entonces Quirke es tu apuesta.»Chicago Tribune«Elegante, con el ritmo preciso, giros dramáticos, sorpresas perturbadoras y personajes de gran riqueza y profundidad psicológica... Puede uno zambullirse de cabeza en Muerte en verano sin ninguna referencia previa sobre los tres volúmenes anteriores, o bien tomarlo como una nueva entrega de la serie de uno de los mejores novelistas irlandeses contemporáneos.»New York Journal of Books«¿Cómo llegó a habitar un alegre y prolífico autor de novela negra la mente creadora de uno de los mayores perfeccionistas de todo el mundo? ... ¿Son el Dr.Banville y Mr. Black en realidad tan distintos como parecen?»Washington Post«Banville es ese extraño escritor capaz de atrapar los cinco sentidos en una oración enunciativa.»The Wall Street Journal«Bastan unas páginas de lo último de Black (con su patólogo protagonista, Quirke) para dar fe de su condición de estilista; un autor cuyo uso del lenguaje es capaz de crear un escalofrío casi sensual...»The Independent«Los misterios de Quirke son mejores que casi cualquier otra cosa en este género. Una escritura bella y concisa, un desarrollo de los personajes preciso y progresivo de un libro a otro, una inteligencia vivaz y un sentido del humor que es uno de los principales placeres de la lectura de un libro. Con Benjamin Black estás en buenas manos, y él lo sabe. No te defraudará.»The Oregonian«Con una maestría que nada tiene que envidiarle al maestro Ellroy, Banville inyecta alta literatura a la prosa de su otro yo, su yo oscuro y juguetón, un Black que es cada vez más Banville. De lectura deliciosa y adictiva, Muerte en verano es quizá, por su aparente sencillez, el ejercicio de esgrima perfecto del cada vez más poderoso Mr. Hyde de John Banville.»Laura Fernández, El Cultural de El Mundo«Muerte en verano es una gran noticia para los aficionados al género y también para los aficionados al trabajo literario de John Banville, probablemente uno de los más distinguidos del momento... Aguardan en cada página esa clase de hallazgos que nos hacen soltar silbidos de admiración... Banville/Black es un maestro tranquilo.»Pablo Martínez Zarracina, El Correo español
