<p><b>Estas historias de fantasmas son también historias de amor</b></p> <p></p><p>«<i>Un libro maravilloso. El don de Hustvedt consiste en escribir sobre las emociones más desgarradoras con una lucidez, mesura y belleza extraordinarias. El resultado es una obra profundamente conmovedora, cruda por la pérdida y, sin embargo, luminosa por el amor».</i> <b>Sarah Waters</b></p> <p></p><p>A punto de fallecer, <b>Paul Auster le dijo a su esposa que quería convertirse en un fantasma</b>, regresar para ver cómo estaba, qué escribía tras su partida o cómo crecía su nieto Miles. Y eso es lo que ha llegado a ser para Siri Hustvedt, una presencia siempre palpable y reconfortante: al oler su tabaco en casa, al sumergirse en sus libros y al rememorar una historia de amor y una comunión intelectual que duró cuarenta y tres años.</p> <p></p><p>En su obra más personal, <b>Hustvedt reconstruye su unión legendaria con él a través de la textura desgarradora del duelo y el consuelo de un amor eterno.</b> A medio camino entre el diario y la narración literaria, el texto parte de documentos inéditos de enorme valor, desde las notas que intercambiaron durante décadas hasta los últimos escritos de Paul Auster en forma de cartas a su nieto.</p> <p><br><b>ENGLISH DESCRIPTION</b></p><p></p> <p></p><p><b>These ghost stories are also love stories</b></p> <p></p><p>«<i>A wonderful book. Hustvedt's gift lies in her ability to write about the most devastating emotions with extraordinary clarity, restraint, and beauty. The result is a deeply moving work, raw in its portrayal of loss and yet luminous with love.»</i> <b>Sarah Waters</b></p> <p></p><p>As he was nearing death, <b>Paul Auster told his wife that he wanted to become a ghost</b>, to return and see how she was doing, what she would write after his departure, or how his grandson Miles would grow. And that is what he has become for Siri Hustvedt, a presence that is always tangible and comforting: in the smell of his tobacco at home, in the pages of his books, and in the memory of a love story and an intellectual communion that lasted forty three years.</p> <p></p><p>In her most personal work, <b>Hustvedt reconstructs their legendary bond through the searing texture of grief and the solace of an eternal love.</b> Poised between diary and literary narrative, the book draws on invaluable unpublished documents, from the notes they exchanged over decades to Paul Auster's final writings in the form of letters to his grandson.</p> <p></p>
