About this listen
El Premio Nobel de Literatura 2023 narra en este maravilloso libro la emocionante y triste historia de Lars Hertervig, un pintor noruego del siglo XIX.
Düsseldorf, 1853. El joven artista Lars Hertervig, alumno de Hans Gude en la Academia de Arte de Düsseldorf, está encerrado en su habitación, paralizado por la ansiedad que le provocan las clases de arte y el amor irracional que siente hacia Helene Winckelmann, la hija de su casera. La fijación de Lars por Helene, marcada por alucinaciones y furiosos delirios sexuales, obliga a la familia de la joven a expulsarlo de la habitación donde se hospeda. Sin ningún lugar adonde ir, Hertervig deambula entre un café donde soporta las burlas de sus compañeros de la academia y el apartamento de los Winckelmann, en el que intenta desesperadamente ser admitido de nuevo: una especie de limbo que lo lleva a un inexorable estado de locura.
Melancolía es una ficcional, salvaje y febril invocación del artista noruego del siglo XIX Lars Hertervig, que pintó paisajes bañados de luz, sufrió una enfermedad mental y murió pobre en 1902. Galardonada con el Melsom Prize y el Sunnmøre Prize, está considerada una de las grandes novelas de quien ha sido llamado «el Beckett del siglo XXI»( Le Monde).
La crítica ha dicho:
«Sus innovadoras obras de teatro y su prosa han dado voz a lo impronunciable». Jurado del Premio Nobel
«La obra de Fosse es un enigma que da vida y esperanza a quien la lee. Ilumina el alma humana como solo lo hacen los elegidos». Manuel Vilas
«Jon Fosse es uno de los más importantes escritores europeos». Karl Ove Knausgård
«El Beckett del siglo veintiuno». Le Monde
«Se ha comparado a Fosse con Ibsen y Beckett, y es fácil ver que su obra, como la de Ibsen, se enraiza en lo esencial de las emociones. Pero es mucho más. Entre otras cosas, cuenta con una feroz simplicidad poética». Anita Gates, The New York Times
«Es desesperadamente conmovedor […]. Una obra esencial para comprender los temas principals y la evolución de la técnica y la vision artística del autor». Rónán Hession, The Irish Times
«En Fosse, la fusion de lo cotidiano y lo existencial, junto con sus dramáticas incursions en el pasado, conforman una obra que no puedes dejar de leer». Catherine Taylor, The Guardian
«La poesía suena en todos los escritos de Fosse, que busca la esencia y la verdad». Andrea Aguilar, El País
«Leer a Fosse desencadena una curiosa euphoria, una fascinación próxima a la que generan las leyendas o los mitos». Pilar Adón

Story
Un hombre conduce sin un rumbo en mente, hasta que su coche queda atascado al final de una pista forestal. Es una tarde de finales de otoño, ya casi no hay luz y comienza a nevar. En lugar de volver caminando hacia atrás en busca de ayuda o quedarse en el coche, de forma imprudente y sin saber muy bien por qué, el hombre decide adentrarse en el bosque. Inevitablemente, se pierde, y la noche sigue avanzando. Cuando el agotamiento y el frío empiezan a vencerlo, vislumbra un extraño resplandor en medio de la oscuridad.

Esta es la historia de Hans Castorp, un joven y modesto ingeniero que llega a un sanatorio ubicado en los Alpes suizos para visitar a su primo. La estancia que preveía corta se dilata en el tiempo y acaba formando parte de esta nueva forma de vida en la que se relativiza el transcurso del tiempo. Sentado en el balcón del sanatorio y envuelto en una manta, Hans reflexiona acerca de la vida, la muerte y el amor. El resultado es una de las grandes obras maestras de la literatura universal.

When Heather McKinley dreamed of becoming a doctor, she imagined curing sick kids and sporting pink stethoscopes. She never anticipated the sleepless nights, grueling exams, and endless labs. And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs. But Heather would never consider doing anything like that. That is, until her longtime boyfriend dumps her, she finds herself failing anatomy, and her world starts to crumble.
