About the Book

Cuatro poetas, la Primera Guerra Mundial. Sólo uno de ellos sobrevivirá a la primera conflagración bélica industrial, pero todos dejarán su marca en la nueva poesía en lengua inglesa, alterada para siempre por el horror de las trincheras. Nunca más será la guerra retratada en la poesía como una aventura gloriosa y ennoblecedora. Esta novela histórica traza los arcos vitales de Edward Thomas, Siegfried Sassoon, Wilfred Owen e Isaac Rosenberg, todos pacifistas que, por una razón u otra, se sintieron obligados a sumarse al esfuerzo por la supervivencia de la Gran Bretaña. Narrada por un funcionario impedido físicamente de ir a la guerra, la novela va mostrando cómo se cruzaron los destinos de estos cuatro creadores: el caballero inglés, el profesor de idiomas, el depresivo cantor de la campiña y el pintor-poeta judío. Cada uno, desde sus muy diversos orígenes, se interna en la poesía en un momento en que la lírica tradicional, sus temas y su lenguaje, habían dejado de reflejar la realidad cotidiana de una nación en proceso de vertiginoso cambio. Perdidos en sus intentos por crear una nueva poesía, es paradójicamente la guerra, que los cuatro aborrecían, el fenómeno que les abre los ojos a una manera nueva de expresar la realidad aunque esta, tristemente, sea la de la muerte, el pánico y el fin del mundo, de su mundo, pero también el pavoroso comienzo de un mundo nuevo, en el que aún vivimos.El innombrado narrador, un servidor público, conoce a Sassoon desde la infancia y a lo largo de la novela traba conocimiento con los otros tres, cuyas vidas a su vez se entrecruzan para formar un mosaico de la vida intelectual de la Gran Bretaña de principios del siglo XX. Por primera vez en español, las fascinantes vidas de estos poetas célebres en el mundo de habla inglesa son presentadas a los lectores a partir de una amplia investigación, que incluye traducciones originales de algunos de sus poemas.
