LA NUEVA NOVELA DEL AUTOR PREMIO ALFAGUARA DE NOVELA
UNA FICCIÓN CON BASE REAL SOBRE UNA ARTISTA EXCEPCIONAL QUE SUPO ENFRENTARSE A TODAS LAS CONVENCIONES DE SU MUNDO
Juan Gabriel Vásquez parte de esas palabras para investigar en la vida secreta o desconocida de una mujer extraordinaria. Feliza Bursztyn se enfrentó siempre a la sociedad en la que le tocó vivir. Hija de una pareja de judíos expatriados en Colombia, artista revolucionaria en un tiempo de revoluciones políticas, mujer de espíritu libre en un mundo que desconfiaba de la libertad de las mujeres, llevó una existencia que puso en escena las grandes tensiones del siglo XX y, sobre todo, el deseo de ser dueña de sí misma.
On January 8th, 1982, Colombian sculptor Feliza Bursztyn died in a Paris restaurant. She was forty-eight years old. At the time of her sudden death, she was with her husband and four of her friends. One of them, writer Gabriel García Márquez, published an article days later, which included four seemingly simple yet deeply mysterious words: “She died of sadness.”
Juan Gabriel Vásquez takes those words to begin his research on the secret or unknown life of an extraordinary woman. Feliza Bursztyn always confronted the society she lived in. Daughter of an expatriated Jewish couple in Colombia, she was a revolutionary artist in a time of political revolutions, a free-spirited woman in a world suspicious of the freedom of women, who led an existence that staged the great tensions of the twentieth century, and above all, the desire to be her own person.
In Feliza’s Names, the author skillfully blends autobiography, reality, and imagination to deliver an amazing and heart-wrenching fiction about how a human being’s private life gets inevitably trampled on by the forces of history and politics.
