Laura Alcoba
About this listen
Por fin reunida en un solo volumen la aclamada trilogía autobiográfica de Laura Alcoba: La casa de los conejos, El azul de las abejas y La danza de la araña.
«Es lo primero que me llamó la atención: la precisión de esa escritura. Y es lo que siento cada vez que escucho a su autora hablar: la claridad de su voz. Esa voz tan cristalina que venció a todos los silencios.»
Daniel Pennac
«Por fin voy a evocar toda aquella locura argentina, a todos aquellos seres arrebatados por la violencia. Me decidí a hacerlo porque muy a menudo pienso en los muertos, pero también porque sé que no hay que olvidarse de los sobrevivientes.»
Por fin se publican reunidas en un solo volumen las tres novelas con las que Laura Alcobaha narrado una infancia―su infancia―y, con ella, también la historia de la época másconvulsa de la Argentina contemporánea: La casa de los conejos, El azul de las abejas y La danza de la araña. Aquí palpita una memoria viva y llena de claroscuros que nace en 1975, poco antes del inicio de la dictadura argentina, atraviesa el exilio en Francia y alcanza hasta la llegada de la adolescencia en un país que quizá ya sea el propio, pero quizá no. Esta historia a caballo entre un lado y otro del océano, siempre anhelando una patria imposible, tiene la carga de emotividad que solo el recuerdo de la infancia o la mejor literatura pueden invocar. Ambos están presentes aquí con una fuerza y una finura únicas. Todo un fenómeno editorial en Francia y ya un clásico de la literatura autobiográfica más reciente.
Sobre la trilogía:
«Una trilogía emocionante. [...] Laura Alcoba nos muestra su historia, profundamente perturbadora, pero bellamente contada, sobre algo tan importante como es la pérdida de la inocencia y la fuerza del amor.»
Susana Santaolalla, El Ojo Crítico (RNE)
«Literatura autobiográfica de alto voltaje.»
Paula Polizzotto, Vozpópuli
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.

Story
Hace treinta años, en un terreno baldío de un barrio tranquilo, apareció descuartizado y quemado el cadáver de una adolescente. La investigación se cerró sin culpables y su familia -de clase media educada, formal y católica- silenciosamente se fue resquebrajando Pero, pasado ese largo tiempo, la verdad oculta saldrá a la luz gracias al persistente amor del padre de la víctima. Esa verdad mostrará con crudeza lo que se esconde detrás de las apariencias; la crueldad a la que pueden llevar la obediencia y el fanatismo religioso.

Cuando Eufrasia Vela empieza a trabajar como cuidadora de ancianos, no sospecha que su oficio la llevará a una encrucijada existencial. La íntima relación que mantiene con doña Carmen, el doctor Harrison y Los Siete Magníficos—entrañables personajes que se apoderan de su pensamiento y su cariño—la obliga a replantearse su papel de madre y hermana, las vicisitudes de la longevidad, las formas de la compasión y el sorpresivo valor que los cuyes, esos conejillos de Indias tan peculiares, adquieren en su presupuesto moral.

Claudia Piñeiro capta con genialidad los tonos de las voces de la sociedad argentina. Y entre ellas la de un ama de casa dispuesta a todo con tal de conservar su matrimonio y las buenas apariencias. Un corazón dibujado con rouge, cruzado por un "te quiero" y firmado "Tuya" le revela a Inés que su marido la engaña. Lo que sigue a continuación no sólo es un policial vertiginoso y atrapante, sino un retrato implacable de la vida familiar de la clase media.

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.

Estela deja a su madre en el sur para trabajar en la casa de una familia en Santiago de Chile y allí se queda los siguientes siete años, limpiando y criando a una niña acosada por la ansiedad, cuya muerte conocemos al comienzo de la novela. Como en una tragedia griega, la tensión crece con cada página, con cada personaje o elemento: la perra callejera, el veneno, la pistola, la confesión inconfesable del “señor”, la aparición de Carlos, hasta un desenlace tan poderoso como inevitable.

Story
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
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.

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.

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. 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.
