La nueva novela del premio Nobel de Literatura: un canto al independentismo emocional y el relato sobrecogedor de su infancia como niño de la guerra.

En este viaje sentimental por Bretaña, la tierra idílica de su infancia, Le Clézio nos invita a reflexionar sobre la identidad territorial, los nacionalismos y el paso del tiempo. Desde su primer recuerdo -la explosión de una bomba en el jardín de la casa de su abuela-, pasando por los años vividos como niño de la guerra, que de forma tan terrible impactaron en su aprendizaje del mundo, el premio Nobel de Literatura dibuja una página imprescindible de su geografía emocional que habla de la pertenencia y su lugar en la memoria.

Un recorrido hacia la madurez, pero sobre todo una mirada lúcida sobre los cambios sociopolíticos en un territorio único, la progresiva desaparición de su economía tradicional y la orgullosa dignidad de un pueblo que, pese a todo, se aferra a sus raíces.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The latest novel from this Nobel Prize winner, a song of emotional independence and the breathtaking tale of his early days as a war child.
 
In this sentimental journey through Britain, the idyllic land of his childhood, Le Clézio invites us to reflect upon territorial identity, nationalism, and the passage of time. From his early memories (a bomb exploding in his grandmother’s backyard), sifting through his years as a war child, a time that had a terrible impact in his knowledge of the world, the Nobel laureate draws an essential page from his emotional geography, discussing his sense of belonging and its place within his memory.

It is a journey towards maturity, but most of all, a lucid look upon social and political changes in a unique territory, the gradual disappearance of traditional economy, and the proud dignity of a people that nevertheless still holds fast to their roots.
