Synopsis "Paraiso (in Spanish)"

Cuando los padres de Yusuf, de doce años, le dicen que vivirá con su tío Aziz durante una temporada, el chico se muestra entusiasmado. Pero lo que Yusuf no sabe es que su padre lo ha empeñado para saldar una deuda imposible de pagar, ni tampoco que Aziz no es pariente suyo, sino un rico y acaudalado comerciante con el que viajará por frica central y las riberas del Congo en vísperas de la primera guerra mundial. A través de los ojos de ese chiquillo descubriremos una naturaleza exuberante y hostil, poblada de tribus despiadadas e invasores de salmados, en la que una vida humana vale tanto como unas cuantas gotas de agua. La crítica ha dicho... «Gurnah evoca su mundo con una prosa poética que resulta pura y lúcida: un pequeño paraíso en sí misma.» The Guardian «Un libro que cobra vida con lo inesperado y donde se rescata de manera fascinante un mundo ya extinguido.» The Sunday Times «Un retrato evocador de un continente africano al borde del cambio. Una meditación conmovedora sobre la naturaleza de la libertad y la pérdida de la inocencia, válida tanto para un único niño sensible como para todo un continente.» The New York Times Book Review

Muy recomendable. Lo estoy leyendo y hasta ahora me gusta mucho esta historia. El autor narra de manera sencilla y detallada, lo que permite transportarse a la época precolonial africana.
