Synopsis "La Jornada del Muerto (in Spanish)"

La Jornada del Muerto está ambientada en los convulsos años de las guerras territoriales entre los Estados Unidos y México. Texas se ha proclamado república independiente en 1836, pero el Gobierno mexicano aún no ha reconocido al nuevo Estado y sus tropas realizan incursiones frecuentes para evitar que se consolide la secesión.
Dos jóvenes reclutas recién incorporados a los Rangers de Texas, Gus y Call, se embarcan en una expedición a la árida frontera mexicana con la misión de descubrir una vía practicable entre San Antonio y Santa Fe a lo largo del Río Grande. Tras estar a punto de caer en manos del jefe comanche Joroba de Búfalo, Gus y Call regresan sanos y salvos a San Antonio. Pero, seducidos por la leyenda del oro de Santa Fe, se unen a un pequeño ejército liderado por CCobb, un pirata y mercenario que se propone liberar esta ciudad del dominio mexicano, un grupo variopinto de doscientos aventureros cuyos supervivientes, tras superar múltiples peligros, se verán enfrentados al reto de sus vidas, atravesar la Jornada del Muerto, un paraje extremadamente desértico de unas doscientas millas en el desolado Nuevo México, cruzado por un estrecho sendero que reduce en diez jornadas el viaje entre El Paso y Santa Fe.
Aunque es la tercera novela en orden de publicación de la saga de Lonesome Dove, La Jornada del Muerto es la primera en cuanto a la secuencia cronológica de los acontecimientos narrados en esta saga, y puede ser leída y disfrutada independientemente del resto de la serie. El lector conocerá en esta novela las correrías juveniles de Gus y Call, protagonistas de la inolvidable Lonesome Dove.

Larry McMurtry was born on June 3, 1936 in Wichita Falls, Texas. Novelist, essayist, and screenwriter for film and television, McMurtry sets most of his works in the West. He grew up on a ranch on the outskirts of Archer City, Texas and studied at North Texas State University and Rice University. His first novel, Hud the Wild (1961) immediately sparked the interest of critics and won the Jesse M. Jones Award from the Texas Institute of Letters (1962) and the Guggenheim Fellowship (1964). In 1985, he won the Pulitzer Prize for his novel Lonesome Dove. Author of twenty-five novels, two essay collections, an autobiographical text, and more than thirty screenplays, McMurtry is best known for the masterful film adaptations of some of his novels: in 1963 Hud starring Paul Newman and in 1971 The Last Picture Show, Peter Bogdanovich's masterpiece. In 2006, McMurtry was awarded the Golden Globe and the Oscar for the screenplay of Brokeback Mountain. He currently lives in Archer City, Texas.
