Overview

Un volumen que reúne cuatro novelas fundamentales de Llop, considerado «el Modiano español» (Le Figaro Litteraire)

«José Carlos Llop es un mago». -La Croix

«Llop introduce al lector en una atmósfera enigmática y envolvente de la que te resultará difícil escapar». -Emma Rodríguez, El Mundo

Dos son los protagonistas de las novelas que forman este Cuarteto de la memoria: la ciudad y una voz que se aferra a esa memoria para comprender una vida que se le escapa.

La segunda mitad del siglo XX es la época donde transcurren, justo en ese instante donde el tiempo viejo aún no se ha ido del todo y el tiempo nuevo está por llegar: como en las civilizaciones. Su deriva arranca en un colegio de jesuitas y un misterio familiar, continúa en el regreso de un escritor a esa misma ciudad para hacerse cargo de una herencia, tiene su cénit entre una plaza militar del norte de España, un complot y una familia mediterránea regida por las mujeres, y declina en una Europa que se deshace lentamente y un programa de radio por donde desfilan las sombras de un tiempo que fue y ya no es.

Los secretos sin desvelar, las atmósferas de intriga, un fino sentido del humor, los personajes ambiguos que surgen de las guerras, los expatriados, el tráfico de arte, el hipismo de los sesenta y el humus de las pasiones humanas son algunos de los rasgos de este Cuarteto, cuyas novelas El informe Stein, La cámara de ámbar, Háblame del tercer hombre y El mensajero de Argel , fronterizas entre lo vivido y lo imaginario, han tenido una gran acogida en Francia.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

“An anthology of four essential novels by Llop, considered Spain’s answer to Modiano” - (Le Figaro Litteraire)

“José Carlos Llop is a magician.” - La Croix

“Llop immerses readers in an enigmatic and enveloping atmosphere that is hard to escape.” - Emma Rodríguez, El Mundo

The novels in this collection have two real protagonists: the city, and a voice that clings to its memory in an attempt to understand a life that is slipping away.

The stories are set in the second half of the twentieth century, just at that moment when the previous era isn’t completely over and the new one has yet to assert itself. Their trajectory begins in a Jesuit school with a family mystery; continues through an author’s return to the city in question to claim an inheritance; culminates in a military encampment in northern Spain; and declines in a Europe that is slowly disintegrating, on a radio program frequented by the shadows of a time now past.
