Synopsis "El Asedio de Troya (in Spanish)"

En este recuento perspicaz de La Ilíada, una joven maestra griega recurre al poder duradero del mito para ayudar a sus estudiantes a sobrellevar los terrores de la ocupación nazi. Las bombas caen sobre un pueblo griego durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, y una maestra lleva a sus alumnos a una cueva para refugiarse. Allí les cuenta sobre otra guerra, cuando los griegos sitiaron a Troya. Día tras día, cuenta cómo los griegos sufren de sed, calor y nostalgia, y cómo se enfrentan los oponentes: ejército contra ejército, hombre contra hombre. Los cascos se cortan, las cabezas vuelan, la sangre fluye. Ahora son otros los que invaden Grecia, el ejército de la Alemania nazi. Pero los horrores son los mismos miles de años después. Theodor Kallifatides proporciona una notable visión psicológica en su versión moderna de La Ilíada, minimizando el papel de los dioses y profundizando en la mentalidad de sus héroes mortales. La epopeya de Homero cobra vida con una urgencia renovada que nos permite experimentar los eventos como si fueran de primera mano, y revela verdades eternas sobre la insensatez de la guerra y lo que significa ser humano.
