Synopsis "El asedio (in Spanish)"

El asedioCádiz, 1811. España lucha por su independencia mientras América lo hace por la suya. En las calles de la ciudad más libe

ral de Europa se libran batallas de otra índole. Mujeres jóvenes aparecen desolladas a latigazos. En cada lugar, antes del hallazg

o del cadáver, ha caído una bomba francesa. Eso traza sobre la ciudad un mapa superpuesto y siniestro: un complejo tablero de ajed

rez donde la mano de un jugador oculto —un asesino despiadado, el azar, las curvas de artillería, la dirección de los vientos, el

cálculo de probabilidades— mueve piezas que deciden el destino de los protagonistas: un policía corrupto y brutal, la heredera de

una importante casa comercial gaditana, un capitán corsario de pocos escrúpulos, un taxidermista misántropo y espía, un enterneced

or guerrillero de las salinas y un excéntrico artillero a quien las guerras importan menos que resolver el problema técnico del co

rto alcance de sus obuses.El asedio narra el pulso asombroso de un mundo que pudo ser y no fue. El fin de una época y unos person

ajes condenados por la Historia, sentenciados a una vida que, como la ciudad que los alberga —una Cádiz equívoca, enigmática, sólo

en apariencia luminosa y blanca—, nunca volverá a ser la misma.
