Description:
El camino de Ida, el último libro de Ricardo Piglia, le confirma como uno de los grandes escritores contemporáneos.

Ni siquiera ha publicado nada en mucho tiempo. Cuando la bella y belicosa Ida Brown lo invita a impartir un seminario sobre los años argentinos de W. H. Hudson en la exclusiva Taylor University, cerca de Nueva York, todo cambia.Taylor le permitirá huir de una realidad dolorosa, centrarse en alumnos y lecturas. Con el tiempo, le ofrecerá también la oportunidad de volver a enamorarse... Pero un suceso trágico trastoca de nuevo su vida y le inmiscuye en una arriesgada investigación en torno al terrorismo. Reseña:«Atrapa desde el primer párrafo y su interés no decae hasta el muy logrado final. Todo Piglia se encuentra destilado en El camino de Ida.»Edmundo Paz Soldán, El Boomeran(g)ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONOne Way Road, Ricardo Piglia’s last book, places him as one of the great contemporary writers. Emilio Renzi, a recurring character in Piglia’s work from La invasion / The Invasion to Blanco nocturno / Target in the Night, has become a fifty-year-old divorcée, alone and insecure who seems to be killing time in Buenos Aires. He hasn’t even published anything in a long time. Then, everything changes when the beautiful and feisty Ida Brown invites him to teach a workshop at the exclusive Taylor University near New York City.Being at Taylor will allow him to escape from his painful reality, and concentrate on students and books. With time, it will also give him the opportunity to fall in love again. But a tragic event again disrupts his peaceful life and submerges him in a risky investigation into terrorism. "It grabs you from the first paragraph, and doesn’t let go until its perfect ending. All of Piglia is condensed into El camino de Ida / One Way Road." –Edmundo Paz Soldán, El Boomeran(g)
