Synopsis "Invisible (in Spanish)"

En 1967, Adam Walker, un aspirante a poeta y estudiante de la Universidad de Columbia, asiste a una fiesta donde conoce a una enigmática pareja formada por el sofisticado Rudolf Born y la silenciosa y seductora Margot. En poco tiempo, Walker se encuentra atrapado en un triángulo perverso que tras un repentino acto de violencia alterará el curso de su vida para siempre. Tres narradores diferentes cuentan la historia de Invisible, una novela que viaja en el tiempo, desde 1967 hasta 2007, y se traslada de Morningside Heights a la orilla izquierda de París y, de allí, a una isla remota en el Caribe. Una obra sobre la ira juvenil, el hambre sexual y la incesante búsqueda de la justicia. Con una visión intransigente, Auster nos ubica en el borroso límite entre la verdad y la memoria, entre la autoría y la identidad, para producir una obra de poder inolvidable que confirma su reputación como «uno de los autores norteamericanos con la imaginación más prodigiosa».
