About this listen
La primera novela de Arturo Pérez-Reverte en una nueva edición revisada por el autor
Esta novela narra la historia de un jovencísimo húsar de 19 años, el subteniente del ejército napoleónico Frederic Glüntz, quien se dispone a afrontar su primera batalla.
La crítica ha dicho...
"Un relato espléndido sobre la desmitificación de la guerra y la muerte de todo heroísmo, en plena época napoleónica." (Rafael Conte, El País)
"Un relato intenso y hábil que hoy figura para mí entre lo mejor del conjunto de su obra. Su historia, las experiencias militares en Andalucía, en 1808, del subteniente del ejército napoleónico Frederic Glüntz, habla de una cosa, del desarrollo de unas batallas, y se refiere a otra, al sentido de la vida y a la condición humana frente a una situación límite. Un relato de acción, pero no solo ni sobre todo." (Santos Sanz Villanueva, El Mundo)
"La guerra está aquí pintada en plena gloria: vacía y terrible. Una obra maestra para la Galería de las Batallas." (Le Monde)
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Story
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 Un día de cólera, Arturo Pérez-Reverte convierte en historia colectiva las pequeñas y oscuras historias particulares registradas en archivos y libros.Lo imaginado, por tanto, se reduce a la argamasa narrativa que une las piezas. Con las licencias mínimas que la palabra novela justifica, estas páginas pretenden devolver la vida a quienes durante doscientos años solo han sido personajes anónimos en grabados y lienzos contemporáneos, o escueta relación de nombres en los documentos oficiales.

Story
Ésta es la historia de un hombre, tres mujeres, una revolución y un tesoro. La revolución fue la de México en tiempos de Emiliano Zapata y Francisco Villa. El tesoro fueron quince mil monedas de oro de a veinte pesos de las denominadas maximilianos, robadas en un banco de Ciudad Juárez el 8 de mayo de 1911. El hombre se llamaba Martín Garret Ortiz y era un joven ingeniero de minas español. Todo empezó para él ese mismo día, cuando desde su hotel oyó un primer disparo lejano. Salió a la calle para ver qué ocurría y a partir de ese momento su vida cambió para siempre.

En los años 1942 y 1943, durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, buzos de combate italianos hundieron o dañaron catorce barcos aliados en Gibraltar y la bahía de Algeciras. En esta novela, inspirada en hechos reales, sólo algunos personajes y situaciones son imaginarios. Elena Arbués, una librera de veintisiete años, encuentra una madrugada mientras pasea por la playa a uno de esos buzos, desvanecido entre la arena y el agua. Al socorrerlo, la joven ignora que esa determinación cambiará su vida y que el amor será sólo parte de una peligrosa aventura.

Story
No tenía patria ni rey, sólo un puñado de hombres fieles. No tenían hambre de gloria, sólo hambre. Así nace un mito. Así se cuenta una leyenda. El arte del mando era tratar con la naturaleza humana, y él había dedicado su vida a aprenderlo. Colgó la espada del arzón, palmeó el cuello cálido del animal y echó un vistazo alrededor: sonidos metálicos, resollar de monturas, conversaciones en voz baja. Aquellos hombres olían a estiércol de caballo, cuero, aceite de armas, sudor y humo de leña.

Mucho más de lo esperado
Este autor es uno de mis favoritos, cuando me enteré que esta era su primer obra publicada supuse que la calidad de la obra sería menor que las otras obras a las que estoy acostumbrado, pero la sorpresa ha sido muy agradable, ya que la calidad de la redacción en la historia son buenas, quizás un poco lento al principio, pero después se desarrollaa buena velocidad. Desde luego lo recomendaré.
