About the Book

Una nueva y estimulante colección de textos personales y críticos de Javier Marías, aclamado autor de Los enamoramientos y Corazón tan blanco, que abarcan más de veinte años de su trabajo como escritor.

Javier Marías es un incansable examinador del mundo que nos rodea: ensayista, novelista, traductor, lector voraz, refutador implacable de lo pretencioso y erudito entusiasta. Es capaz de descubrir lo que muchos de nosotros no notamos o nunca hemos podido expresar con palabras, y sigue observando cuando la mayoría hemos dejado de hacerlo. Esta nueva colección de ensayos - entre literarios, filosóficos y autobiográficos-- viaja desde los decadentes canales de Venecia hasta los amplios horizontes del Salvaje Oeste, y Marías captura cada nuevo panorama con ingenio y una agudeza afilada. Explora, con su característico entusiasmo, temas que van del fútbol al cine clásico, de las historietas y los soldaditos de plomo a la mortalidad y la memoria, de La ciudad más presumida a Por qué casi nadie es de fiar, haciendo brillante e inimitablemente suyo cada uno de ellos. Incisiva e irónica, subversiva y penetrante, Entre eternidades es una colección de deslumbrante curiosidad intelectual que ofrece una amplia visión de la vasta mente del hombre de quien tan a menudo se dice que es el mejor escritor español vivo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A new, exhilarating collection of critical and personal writings--spanning more than twenty years of work--from the internationally renowned author of The Infatuations and A Heart So White.

Javier Marías is a tireless examiner of the world around us: essayist, novelist, translator, voracious reader, enthusiastic debunker of pretension, and vigorous polymath. He is able to discover what many of us fail to notice or have never put into words, and he keeps looking long after most of us have turned away. This new collection of essays--by turns literary, philosophical, and autobiographical--journeys from the crumbling canals of Venice to the wide horizons of the Wild West, and Marías captures each new vista with razor-sharp acuity and wit. He explores, with characteristic relish, subjects ranging from soccer to classic cinema, from comic books and toy soldiers to mortality and memory, from The Most Conceited of Cities to Why Almost No One Can Be Trusted, making each brilliantly and inimitably his own. Trenchant and wry, subversive and penetrating, Between Eternities is a collection of dazzling intellectual curiosity, offering a window into the expansive mind of the man so often said to be Spain's greatest living writer.
