Amélie Nothomb
About this listen
Una apasionante y nothombiana reelaboración de la Historia Sagrada, reelaborada por una de las escritoras más geniales de nuestro tiempo.
El Testamento según Jesucristo. O el Testamento según Amélie Nothomb. La novelista belga se atreve a dar voz al protagonista y es el propio Jesús quien nos narra su Pasión.
Aparecen en estas páginas Poncio Pilatos, los discípulos de Cristo, el traidor Judas, María Magdalena, los milagros, la crucifixión, la muerte y resurrección, las conversaciones de Jesús con su padre divino... Personajes y situaciones de todos conocidos, pero a los que aquí se da una vuelta de tuerca: se nos cuentan con una mirada moderna, un tono lírico y filosófico con toques de humor. Jesús nos habla del alma y la vida eterna, pero también del cuerpo y del aquí y ahora; de lo trascendental, pero también de lo mundano. Y aflora un personaje visionario y reflexivo que conoce el amor, el deseo, la fe, el dolor, la decepción y la duda. Esta novela reinterpreta y humaniza una figura histórica con una mirada acaso transgresora, tal vez iconoclasta, pero que no busca en absoluto la provocación por la provocación ni el escándalo fácil.
¿Un sacrilegio, una blasfemia? Simplemente literatura, y de la buena, con la fuerza y capacidad de seducción a las que nos tiene bien acostumbrados Amélie Nothomb. Si en algunos libros anteriores la autora jugaba a reelaborar fábulas y antiguos cuentos de hadas con un toque contemporáneo, aquí se atreve ni más ni menos que con la Historia Sagrada. Y su muy humano Jesucristo no dejará indiferente a nadie.

Con estas palabras iniciaba Edmundo Valdés la primera reseña de Pedro Páramo, aparecida el 30 de marzo de 1955 y conservada por Juan Rulfo entre sus papeles.

Este libro es una novela, un ensayo, una autobiografía. La autora emprende en él un viaje al interior en un juego narrativo lleno de sorpresas. En La loca de la casa se mezclan literatura y vida en un cóctel afrodisíaco de biografías ajenas y autobiografía novelada. Y, así, descubrimos que el gran Goethe adulaba a los poderosos hasta extremos ridículos, que Tolstoi era un energúmeno, que Montero, de niña, fue una enana, y que, con veintitrés años, mantuvo un estrafalario y desternillante romance con un famoso actor.

Critic reviews
El Hijo de Dios que imagina Amélie Nothomb no es un Jesucristo Superstar... Tiene deseos, comete errores, le gusta dormir, no le gusta el matrimonio, le duelen los desprecios y descubre el miedo
-- Natalia Wysocka, La Presse
Su mejor novela después de Metafísica de los tubos... Con humor, Nothomb filosofa sobre el cuerpo, el amor, el placer, la ingratitud humana, el sufrimiento, la esperanza, la fe, la muerte... Nihil obstat
-- Thierry Gandillot, Les Échos
Una bella meditación sobre lo que significa poseer un cuerpo
-- Dominique Greiner, La Croix
Sorprendente y formidable... Lejos de los dogmas habituales, la autora dibuja un retrato radicalmente humano de Jesús
-- Guy Duplat, La Libre Belgique
Hace entrar al lector en la cabeza de Jesús... La Pasión según Amélie. Audaz

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Story
My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

Story
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.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

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.

Sed
Muy bien escrito. Me hizo reflexionar sobre varios conceptos como: “la sed”, amor vs amar, la fe, la soledad y el reconocerse a uno mismo.

Perfecto en lo técnico, intrascendente en lo literario
Nunca pensé que una novela tan corta se me fuera a hacer tan larga. Como ejercicio de estilo, un monólogo en que Jesús reflexiona sobre su encarnación, su humanidad, puede resultar técnicamente interesante, pero si la entendemos como una de las obras de una autora reconocida y consagrada, es pobre y hasta aburrida por momentos. Quizá no era mi momento pero me ha resultado una pérdida de tiempo y me ha quitado la sed de leer otras obras de la misma autora.

You’re narrator is Jesus…
Great experience! A bit sad, but transformative, after all he was only human. Will recommend.
