Overview

El libro de relatos, algunos de ellos autobiográficos, del Premio Nobel de Literatura Jon Fosse, célebre por la calidad minimalista e inquietante de su escritura.

«La obra de Fosse es un enigma que da vida y esperanza a quien la lee. Ilumina el alma humana como solo lo hacen los elegidos». -Manuel Vilas


Escenas de una infancia reúne, por primera vez en lengua española, una selección de la mejor prosa breve del Premio Nobel de Literatura. De los relatos aquí contenidos, algunos se adentran libremente en el terreno de lo autobiográfico, como las extraordinarias estampas de «Escenas de una infancia» o «El pelo de Line»: evocan primeras veces, amistades, pérdidas, el descubrimiento del deseo, instantes de felicidad y fracasos más o menos estrepitosos. Y entre estos relatos se intercalan joyas de otro tenor, como su primer texto publicado, «Él», o la inquietante y onírica novella «Y ya puede venir el perro», en la que una disputa entre vecinos desencadena un espiral de tensión y violencia que avanza hacia un clímax inapelable.

Escritas entre 1981 y 2013, estas piezas breves comparten una enorme potencia expresiva que bebe del habitual estilo minimalista de Fosse, y nos permiten asistir al viaje de una voz única que ha ido puliéndose a lo largo de los años, demostrando que el cuento es otro de los modos recurrentes de su imaginación y que también constituyen uno de los mayores logros de su obra.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The collection of stories, some of them autobiographical, by Nobel Prize in Literature laureate Jon Fosse, renowned for the minimalist and unsettling quality of his writing.

Scenes from a Childhood is the latest collection of stories by Jon Fosse, one of Norway's most celebrated authors and playwrights, famed for the minimalist and unsettling quality of his writing. In the title work, a loosely autobiographical narrative covers infancy to awkward adolescence, unearthing the moments of childhood that linger longest in the imagination. In And Then My Dog Will Come Back to Me, a haunting and dream-like novella, a dispute between neighbors escalates to an inexorable climax. Taken from various sources, the texts gathered here together for the first time demonstrate that the short story is one of the recurrent modes of Fosse's imagination, and occasions some of his greatest works.
