Synopsis "La Canción de la Llanura (in Spanish)"

La novela más célebre del autor de Nosotros en la noche.En la pequeña comunidad de Holt, Colorado, un profesor de instituto intenta lidiar con la depresión de su esposa y sacar adelante a sus dos hijos, que empiezan a descifrar el mundo adulto.Una adolescente es expulsada de casa cuando su madre descubre que está embarazada y, gracias a una profesora, encuentra cobijo en la granja de dos viejos hermanos solteros que viven aislados cuidando de su ganado como han hecho siempre.Las vidas de todos ellos, con sus silencios, su soledad y sus anhelos, se cruzan para construir refugios inesperados y familias excepcionales.Tras el éxito internacional de Nosotros en la noche recuperamos una de las novelas más célebres de Kent Haruf, por la cual estuvo nominado al National Book Award y al Los Angeles Times Book Prize. Haciendo acopio de una prosa sobria y una aparente sencillez narrativa, Haruf ha logrado crear en el pueblo imaginario de Holt un paisaje de una particular grandeza mítica que comparte territorio geográfico y humano con Richard Ford, Annie Prouxl o Cormac McCarthy. Los protagonistas de las novelas de Haruf ponen de manifiesto la forma positiva que el autor tenía de ver el mundo, sin sentimentalismos, pero con una sabiduría y una honestidad que han calado hondo en los lectores.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONNational Book Award FinalistA heartstrong story of family and romance, tribulation and tenacity, set on the High Plains east of Denver.In the small town of Holt, Colorado, a high school teacher is confronted with raising his two boys alone after their mother retreats first to the bedroom, then altogether. A teenage girl—her father long since disappeared, her mother unwilling to have her in the house—is pregnant, alone herself, with nowhere to go. And out in the country, two brothers, elderly bachelors, work the family homestead, the only world they've ever known. From these unsettled lives emerges a vision of life, and of the town and landscape that bind them together—their fates somehow overcoming the powerful circumstances of place and station, their confusion, curiosity, dignity and humor intact and resonant. As the milieu widens to embrace fully four generations, Kent Haruf displays an emotional and aesthetic authority to rival the past masters of a classic American tradition.
