Paperback. Etat : Good. Libya, 1979. Nine-year-old Suleiman's days are circumscribed by the narrow rituals of childhood: outings to the ruins surrounding Tripoli, games with friends played under the burning sun, exotic gifts from his father's constant business trips abroad. But his nights have come to revolve around his mother's increasingly disturbing bedside stories full of old family bitterness. And then one day Suleiman sees his father across the square of a busy marketplace, his face wrapped in a pair of dark sunglasses. Wasn't he supposed to be away on business yet again? Why is he going into that strange building with the green shutters? Why did he lie? Suleiman is soon caught up in a world he cannot hope to understand--where the sound of the telephone ringing becomes a portent of grave danger; where his mother frantically burns his father's cherished books; where a stranger full of sinister questions sits outside in a parked car all day; where his best friend's father can disappear overnight, next to be seen publicly interrogated on state television. In the Country of Men is a stunning depiction of a child confronted with the private fallout of a public nightmare. But above all, it is a debut of rare insight and literary grace.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE * ONE OF BARACK OBAMA'S FAVORITE BOOKS OF THE YEAR * The acclaimed memoir about fathers and sons, a legacy of loss, and, ultimately, healing--one of The New York Times Book Review's ten best books of the year, winner of the PEN/Jean Stein Book Award, and a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award and the Los Angeles Times Book Prize One of the New York Times's 100 Best Books of the 21st Century * A Kirkus Reviews Best Nonfiction Book of the Century When Hisham Matar was a nineteen-year-old university student in England, his father went missing under mysterious circumstances. Hisham would never see him again, but he never gave up hope that his father might still be alive. Twenty-two years later, he returned to his native Libya in search of the truth behind his father's disappearance. The Return is the story of what he found there. The Pulitzer Prize citation hailed The Return as "a first-person elegy for home and father." Transforming his personal quest for answers into a brilliantly told universal tale of hope and resilience, Matar has given us an unforgettable work with a powerful human question at its core: How does one go on living in the face of unthinkable loss? NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY: Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times * The Washington Post * The Guardian * Financial Times "A tale of mighty love, loyalty and courage. It simply must be read."--The Spectator (U.K.) "Wise and agonizing and thrilling to read."--Zadie Smith "[An] eloquent memoir . . . at once a suspenseful detective story about a writer investigating his father's fate . . . and a son's efforts to come to terms with his father's ghost, who has haunted more than half his life by his absence."--Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "This outstanding book . . . roves back and forth in time with a freedom that conceals the intricate precision of its art."--The Wall Street Journal "Truly remarkable . . . a book with a profound faith in the consolations of storytelling . . . a testament to [Matar's] father, his family and his country."--The Daily Telegraph (U.K.) "The Return is a riveting book about love and hope, but it is also a moving meditation on grief and loss. . . . Likely to become a classic."--Colm Tóibín "Matar's evocative writing and his early traumas call to mind Vladimir Nabokov."--The Washington Post "Utterly riveting."--The Boston Globe "A moving, unflinching memoir of a family torn apart."--Kazuo Ishiguro, The Guardian "Beautiful . . . The Return, for all the questions it cannot answer, leaves a deep emotional imprint."--Newsday "A masterful memoir, a searing meditation on loss, exile, grief, guilt, belonging, and above all, family. It is, as well, a study of the shaping--and breaking--of the bonds between fathers and sons. . . . This is writing of the highest quality."--The Sunday Times (U.K.).…

Hardback. Etat : Good. GANADORA DEL PREMIO PULITZER El autor de Solo en el mundo e Historia de una desaparici n emprende en este relato autobiogr fico una infatigable b squeda de la verdad y nos invita a compartir sus emociones m s ntimas, desde las luminosas estampas de una infancia mediterr nea en Tr poli y Bengasi hasta un spero presente donde se mezclan la ilusi n, la rabia y la impotencia. En marzo de 2012, treinta y tres a os despu s de haber pisado por ltima vez la tierra de sus or genes, el autor de este libro regres a Libia junto a su madre y su mujer. El derrocamiento de Gadafi hab a abierto un tiempo nuevo en el que cab a la esperanza de refundar una sociedad devastada por los abominables cr menes de la dictadura, recuperando un sistema de valores basado en la justicia y el respeto por la vida humana. Sin embargo, m s all de so ar con un pa s en libertad y progreso, en la mente de Hisham bull a el deseo de cerrar una herida profunda y dolorosa que hab a marcado su vida y la de su familia. En 1990, su padre, Jaballa Matar, un pr spero y culto empresario, amante de la poes a y l der de la disidencia en el exilio, hab a sido secuestrado en El Cairo y confinado en una prisi n libia. Seis a os m s tarde, las escasas noticias que llegaban se interrumpieron: el rastro de Jaballa se perdi definitivamente. Transitando con maestr a entre las convulsiones personales y los acontecimientos hist ricos, este sincero y poli drico relato autobiogr fico no se limita a tratar de comprender las aflicciones del pasado, sino que se ala una y otra vez el consuelo reparador que ofrecen el amor y la amistad, la literatura y el arte. La cr tica ha dicho. Brillante .] El relato de la b squeda de su padre es meticuloso, incluso fr o, pero su rabia es destemplada e irreconciliable. Con gran destreza, Hisham Matar da forma a la p rdida y dota de universalidad esta particular experiencia de la desolaci n. -Hilary Mantel Un libro fascinante sobre el amor y la esperanza, y al mismo tiempo una conmovedora reflexi n sobre el dolor y la p rdida. Hisham Matar traza un retrato memorable de una familia en el exilio y, al mismo tiempo, analiza con sutileza e inteligencia la pol tica de Libia. .] Seguramente se convertir en un cl sico. - Colm T ib n Matar escribe con el ojo de un novelista para los detalles f sicos y emocionales, y el tacto de un periodista para describir instantes y lugares. La prosa es concisa, econ mica, est tallada con precisi n; la estructura narrativa es el ptica, casi musical. -Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times Sabio, aterrador y emocionante. -Zadie Smith DESCRIPTION IN ENGLISH WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE - The acclaimed memoir about fathers and sons, a legacy of loss, and, ultimately, healing--one of The New York Times Book Review's ten best books of the year, winner of the PEN/Jean Stein Book Award, and a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award and the Los Angeles Times Book Prize When Hisham Matar was a nineteen-year-old university student in England, his father went missing under mysterious circumstances.
