La belleza es una herida /Beauty Is a Wound (9786073162944)



Una saga familiar marcada por el sexo, la brutalidad y un destino trágico que correrá paralelo a la historia reciente de su país, Indonesia. La belleza es una herida sorprende desde la primera página: de repente vemos a una mujer poderosa caminar por las calles de Halimunda, la ciudad indonesia donde nació. Viene del reino de los muertos, pero sigue rodeada del odio y la corrupción que fueron moneda común en ese país a lo largo de todo el siglo xx. Ella es Dewi Ayu, una famosa prostituta, hija de unos padres sin escrúpulos y madre de cuatro niñas que le dio el Diablo. Dewi aprendió desde muy joven a unir inteligencia y hermosura para sobrevivir a los horrores de una invasión enemiga y luego a tratar con soltura a los clientes del mejor burdel de la ciudad. Su único pesar es el carácter caprichoso de las hijas, dueñas de una belleza que es una herida abierta y sin cura. Dewi vuelve ahora, y en el mundo de los vivos le espera una sorpresa. Madres, hijas, hermanas, yernos, sobrinos, maridos, amantes e incluso fantasmas: gracias al talento de Kurniawan, nos llega de Indonesia una saga familiar marcada por el sexo, la brutalidad y un destino familiar grotesco que corre paralelo a la Historia con mayúscula. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The epic novel Beauty Is a Wound combines history, satire, family tragedy, legend, humor, and romance in a sweeping polyphony. The beautiful Indo prostitute Dewi Ayu and her four daughters are beset by incest, murder, bestiality, rape, insanity, monstrosity, and the often vengeful undead. Kurniawan's gleefully grotesque hyperbole functions as a scathing critique of his young nation's troubled past: the rapacious offhand greed of colonialism; the chaotic struggle for independence; the 1965 mass murders of perhaps a million Communists, followed by three decades of Suharto's despotic rule. Beauty Is a Wound astonishes from its opening line: One afternoon on a weekend in May, Dewi Ayu rose from her grave after being dead for twenty-one years.... Drawing on local sources--folk tales and the all-night shadow puppet plays, with their bawdy wit and epic scope--and inspired by Melville and Gogol, Kurniawan's distinctive voice brings something luscious yet astringent to contemporary literature.
