Synopsis "Lagartija (in Spanish)"

Uniendo armónicamente el Japón tradicional y el moderno, Banana Yoshimoto ofrece en este volumen seis relatos cuyos protagonistas, jóvenes y no tan jóvenes, hombres y mujeres, se enfrentan al paso del tiempo y a la necesidad de superar sus traumas infantiles, sus amores atormentados, los abandonos. También la de contemplar lúcidamente sus vidas. Existencias que parecen discurrir sin rumbo, sin sentido, o sin apenas sorpresas, tienen de pronto la oportunidad de albergar por primera vez la esperanza en un futuro más feliz, en seis relatos tejidos en un Tokio donde al atardecer la luna se funde con el cielo y empiezan a parpadear las luces nocturnas.

Banana Yoshimoto (Tokyo, 1964) studied literature at Nihon University. With Kitchen, her first novel, she won the Newcomer Writers Prize in 1987, while she was still a university student, and a year later she was awarded the Izumi Kyoka Literary Prize for the same work. Among other awards, she has received the prestigious Scanno Award in Italy. Yoshimoto is already the author of an extensive but exquisite body of work consisting of essays, novels like N.P., Amrita, and Tsugumi, and storybooks such as Deep Sleep, Memories of a Dead-End Street, and Lizard. Since 1991, the year Tusquets Editores published Kitchen, Yoshimoto has become, along with Haruki Murakami, one of the most prestigious voices in contemporary Japanese literature.
