Overview

Boyne nos hace reflexionar, a través de los ojos de un niño, sobre la fragilidad de la juventud, la atracción del poder, y la culpa.

De padre alemán y madre francesa, Pierrot ha tenido una infancia no muy distinta de la de cualquier niño de su época. Sin embargo, nos hallamos en París, corre el año 1935 y la guerra que se avecina trastocará el destino de millones de personas. Tras la muerte prematura de sus padres, Pierrot deberá separarse de su íntimo amigo Anshel y abandonar Francia para vivir con su tía Beatrix, que trabaja de ama de llaves en una mansión imponente erigida en lo alto de una montaña. Pero no es una casa cualquiera; se trata nada menos que del Berghof, la enorme residencia que Adolf Hitler posee en los Alpes de Baviera.

Así, a sus siete años, alojado de manera involuntaria en el entorno íntimo del todopoderoso Führer, Pierrot se verá inmerso en un mundo tan extrañamente seductor como peligroso. En él no hay lugar para la inocencia, y cuando al final de la guerra es capturado por los aliados, Pieter #como ahora se llama# llevará un peso insoportable en su conciencia. A su regreso a París, abrumado por la culpa, un aspecto clave de la historia surgirá como una tabla de salvación, y el inesperado desenlace será una muestra más de la insondable dimensión del perdón y la amistad.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The Boy at the Top of the Mountain by John Boyne, the author of The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, is another extraordinary historical fiction about World War II and innocence in the face of evil.

When Pierrot becomes an orphan, he must leave his home in Paris for a new life with his aunt Beatrix, a servant in a wealthy Austrian household. But this is no ordinary time, for it is 1935 and the Second World War is fast approaching; and this is no ordinary house, for this is the Berghof, the home of Adolf Hitler.

Pierrot is quickly taken under Hitler's wing and thrown into an increasingly dangerous new world: a world of terror, secrets, and betrayal from which he may never be able to escape.

"With skill and emotional detachment, Boyne tells Pieter’s story through descriptions and dialogue that are concise, spare, and vivid . . . . Pieter’s traumatic childhood, infatuation and interactions with Hitler, adolescent angst, and destructive choices will captivate teens and prompt thought-provoking discussion." ―School Library Journalstarred review
