Overview

FINALISTA DEL PREMIO MAN BOOKER INTERNACIONAL 2020

Una novela monumental sobre un loco ilustre de la tradición literaria europea. Daniel Kehlmann firma con Tyll una entretenida novela  épica de aventuras y una gran historia sobre el poder del arte y la devastación de la guerra.

Daniel Kehlmann reinventa la novela histórica con esta biografía  ficcionada de un personaje legendario del folclore alemán: Tyll  Ulenspiegel. Vagabundo, artista y provocador, nació en el año 1600 en un  ambiente de pobreza y violencia. Siendo niño, descubre su habilidad para  entretener a la gente, el funambulismo y hacer malabares. Su padre, un  molinero que es también mago, empirista y curandero, levanta las  sospechas de los jesuitas y es acusado de brujería. Tyll  se ve obligado a escapar junto a Nele, la hija del panadero.

Empieza así un viaje a través de un país devastado por la Guerra de los  Treinta Años en el que Kehlmann teje con maestría una red de destinos  conectados, un elenco de personajes fascinantes que protagonizan esta  epopeya monumental y cómica. Entre otros, un joven escritor que desea  descubrir cómo es realmente la guerra, un verdugo melancólico, un burro  que habla, un médico poeta, un jesuita fanático, un sabio que falsificó  los resultados de sus experimentos científicos y Federico V e Isabel de  Estuardo, los gobernantes exiliados de Bohemia cuyos errores desataron la guerra.

Con esta fusión de ficción histórica, picaresca y realismo mágico que se  lee como un entretenido libro épico de aventuras, Daniel Kehlmann ha  sido comparado con Umberto Eco y se ha situado como el nuevo embajador de la literatura alemana.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2020 MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE

A major new novel by Daniel Kehlmann.

The vagrant, actor, entertainer and provocateur Tyll Ulenspiegel is born in the early 1600s. Tyll’s father, a miller, is also a magician and explorer, and soon arouses the ire of the village churchmen. Tyll is forced to flee, accompanied by Nele, the baker’s daughter. During his travels through a country devastated by the Thirty Years’ War he meets both ordinary people and great souls. These include the young academic and writer Martin von Wolkenstein, who’s dying to find out what war is really like; the melancholic executioner Tilman; Pirmin, the juggler; Origines, the talking donkey; the exiled rulers of Bohemia, Elizabeth and Friedrich, whose mistakes sparked this great war; the doctor Paul Fleming, whose bizarre plan is to write poems in German; and, not least, the fanatical Jesuit Tesimond and Athanasius Kircher, the renowned sage whose biggest secret is that he forged the startling results of his scientific experiments. Their stories come together in a spellbinding narrative, and an epic re-imagining of the Thirty Years’ War. And who should this violent whirlwind envelop in its fury if not Tyll, the well-known prankster who one day decides to become immortal?

“My favourite German novelist.” -Ian McEwan, Sunday Times
