About the Book

El autor relata que, a raíz del éxito de las películas realizadas basadas en algunas de sus novelas, su productora le propuso escribir un guión. Este fue el origen de El paraíso de las mujeres, retomando el escritor valenciano su entusiasmo infantil por los Viajes de Gulliver para imaginar una secuela del viaje a Liliput ambientada doscientos años más tarde. El protagonista, Edwin Gillespie, es un joven ingeniero sin fortuna enamorado de la hija de un rico potentado ya fallecido. La muchacha corresponde a su amor, pero su madre se niega a dar su consentimiento al noviazgo mientras Edwin no demuestre ser capaz de enriquecerse tal como lo hiciera su difunto esposo. Así pues Edwin decide embarcarse con destino a Australia, pensando que en ese país podrá hacer fortuna para lograr la mano de su amada. El barco en el que viaja el protagonista naufraga frente a las costas de la Tierra de Van Diemen (Tasmania) y este acaba llegando en un bote salvavidas a una playa desconocida que pertenece a la costa de la antigua Liliput. En los dos siglos transcurridos entre la llegada de Gulliver y la de Edwin Gillespie, es evidente que en Liliput han pasado muchas cosas... lo que permite a nuestro autor dar rienda suelta a su imaginación.
About the Author: Acerca Blasco Ibáñez: Vicente Blasco Ibáñez nació el 29 de enero de 1867 en Valencia (España). Era hijo de Ramona Ibáñez y del comerciante Gaspar Blanco. Estudió Derecho en la Universidad de Valencia. Participó en la política uniéndose al Partido Republicano". En 1894 fundó el periódico El pueblo. En el año 1896, fue detenido y condenado a varios meses de prisión. En 1889 contrajo matrimonio con María Blasco del Cacho, hija del magistrado Rafael Blasco y Moreno. Cuando subió al poder Cánovas del Castillo, el escritor se exilió brevemente en la ciudad de París. Fue un autor vinculado en muchos aspectos al naturalismo francés. Por otra parte, la explícita intención político-social de algunas de las novelas de Blasco Ibáñez, aunada al escaso bagaje intelectual del autor, lo mantuvo alejado de los representantes de la Generación del 98. Murió el 28 de enero de 1928 en Menton (Francia)a los 60 años. Entre sus títulos destacan: "Arroz y Tartana" (1894), "La Barraca" (1898), "Entre Naranjos (1900), "Cañas y Barro" (1902), "La Horda" (1905), "Sangre y Arena" (1908) o "Los Cuatro Jinetes Del Apocalipsis" (1916).
