Sinossi
Non ancora vecchio ma stremato dalle malattie, dalle delusioni e dal tradimento, il generale Simón Bolívar, "el Libertador", l'uomo che ha scosso l'America Latina dal giogo spagnolo, rivive come in un sogno i giorni eroici delle sue battaglie e le appassionate notti dei suoi numerosi amori. Nel lungo viaggio che lo riporta nei luoghi che lo videro trionfatore, Bolívar, ormai morente e circondato solo da un pugno di seguaci, riflette sul fallimento dell'ideale che lo ha perseguitato per tutta la vita: l'unità politica delle terre che lui ha liberato e che gruppi di profittatori dominano ormai senza possibilità di riscatto. Un romanzo epico e drammatico, velato di una tristezza fatale e pervaso da un poetico senso di ineluttabilità del destino con il quale García Márquez rende onore al più illustre e sfortunato degli eroi del suo paese.

Idleness was painful after so many years of wars, bitter governments, and trivial loves. The profundity of Simón Bolívar’s vision became the bane of his life. He was destined to be the man who led the Latin American people to freedom from the imperial rule of Spain. Having broken the shackles of slav Leggi tutto
I always feel a twinge of pity when someone tells me, “I don’t read for pleasure any more” or “I only read non-fiction.” Most of the pity is sympathy for the fact that, in today’s busy world, we just don’t have the time. Whenever someone expresses awe at the number of books I read in a year and asks Leggi tutto
বলিভারকে বাইরের দুনিয়ায় আজ কে চেনে? অথচ একটি আস্ত মহাদেশকে মুক্তি এনে দিয়েছিলেন তিনি - ঐতিহাসিক গুরুত্বে লেনিন বা জর্জ ওয়াশিংটনের চেয়ে কোন অংশে কম নয়। বহির্বিশ্বে তিনি বিস্মৃত হলেও ল্যাটিন আমেরিকা তাকে মনে রেখেছে ঠিকই - বোধ করি এমন কোনো শহর বা গঞ্জ খুঁজে পাওয়া যাবে না যেখানে বলিভারের নামে একট Leggi tutto
Inside your labyrinth you’ll meet your own private minotaur A novel that mixes South American history with legend and the lush verbiage of a Nobel Prize-winning author can’t be bad. Yet, like too much dulce de leche ice cream, this story of the last months of Simon Bolívar, liberator from Spanish col Leggi tutto
