About this listen
Por primera vez reunidos en un único volumen todos los relatos de la autora de Memorias de Adriano. Escúchalos ahora
Reescritos a menudo en un lapso de medio siglo, rescatados de los archivos polvorientos de los inéditos, arañados con tesón al olvido, fruto de años de esfuerzo obsesivo, los Cuentos completos de Marguerite Yourcenar forman un compendio de las preocupaciones de una narradora fundamental en la literatura del siglo XX, a la vez que construyen una cámara de ecos en la que resuenan las contradicciones entre la convención social y el arrebato de las pasiones, la experiencia y la inocencia, la necesidad de saber y la conciliación de las ansias enfebrecidas con la áspera realidad de la historia. Por primera vez en un único volumen, los cuatro libros de relatos de la autora de Memorias de Adriano: un auténtico prodigio narrativo.
«Si hubiera que caracterizar con una sola palabra el conjunto de su obra, no lo dudaría un momento: Yourcenar o el saber, naturalmente. Yourcenar o la serenidad, sin duda. Pero sobre todo, Yourcenar o la altura. Yourcenar o la elevación.»
Jean D'Ormesson

Junio de 1960. Un temporal mantiene aisladas en la idílica isla de Utakos, frente a Corfú, a nueve personas alojadas en el pequeño hotel local. Nada hace presagiar lo que está a punto de ocurrir: Edith Mander, una discreta turista inglesa, aparece muerta en el pabellón de la playa. Lo que parece un suicidio revela indicios imperceptibles para cualquiera salvo para Hopalong Basil, un actor en decadencia que en otro tiempo encarnó en la pantalla al más célebre detective de todos los tiempos.

En La vida a ratos el lector es tan protagonista como el narrador, porque descubre en secreto un relato que, en la ficción, no ha sido creado para ser conocido por nadie más que aquel que lo escribe. Es el diario de más de tres años de vida de un personaje -curiosamente también llamado Juan José Millás-, que se muestra tan libre, tan neurótico, y divertido, e irónico e hipocondriaco como solo nos mostramos cuando nadie nos ve.

Muy jóvenes se conocieron Berta Isla y Tomás Nevinson en Madrid, y muy pronta fue su determinación de pasar la vida juntos, sin sospechar que los aguardaba una convivencia intermitente y después una desaparición. Tomás, medio español y medio inglés, es un superdotado para las lenguas y los acentos, y eso hace que, durante sus estudios en Oxford, la Corona ponga sus ojos en él. Un día cualquiera, «un día estúpido» que se podría haber ahorrado, condicionará el resto de su existencia, así como la de su mujer.

Al mismo tiempo Clara Tannenberg, una joven arqueóloga nieta de un poderoso hombre de oscuro pasado, anuncia en el transcurso de un congreso el descubrimiento de unas tablillas que, de ser auténticas, serían la prueba científica de la existencia del patriarca Abraham: se trata de la obra de un escriba que recogió el relato del profeta sobre la creación del mundo, la confusión de las lenguas en Babel y el Diluvio universal. Una auténtica Biblia de Barro.

Story
Crimen y castigo es una de las novelas psicológicas de Dostoievski. Su argumento gira en torno a un joven estudiante que no encuentra otra solución para aliviar su pobreza que matar y robar a una vieja usurera. La novela está estructurada sobre un tema ético: el fin no justifica los medios. Se asiste así a un complicado proceso mental durante el cual el estudiante elabora meticulosamente su crimen, sin pensar en las consecuencias directas y materiales que le pueda reportar. Únicamente al final y a través del amor, le llegará el arrepentimiento redentor.

Story
Guy Montag is a fireman. In his world, where television rules and literature is on the brink of extinction, firemen start fires rather than put them out. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television "family."

Story
Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.
