Overview

La novela más hermosa de Natalia Ginzburg, según Italo Calvino, elogiada por Lydia Davis, Colm Tóibín, Rachel Cusk, Maggie Nelson o Zaddie Smith: una historia inolvidable sobre la felicidad, el amor y la pérdida.

«Cuando leí por primera vez un libro de Natalia Ginzburg, hace muchos años, me pareció que leía algo que había sido escrito para mí, algo que había sido escrito casi dentro de mi propia cabeza o mi corazón». -Sally Rooney, The Guardian

Traducción de Andrés Trapiello y prólogo de Colm Tóibín

En un pueblo cercano a Turín, después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, unas cuantas familias de la burguesía piamontesa luchan por salir del dominio del fascismo y cumplir el papel y las aspiraciones que les han sido asignados. La narradora, Elsa, tiene veintisiete años y vive con sus padres. Mientras su soltería es un motivo de continua ansiedad para su madre, ella observa la asfixiante vida local: dos generaciones de vecinos y parientes con sus chismes, sueños rotos, desamores y ansias de felicidad. Extrañamente ausente de estas historias familiares, Elsa aflora de repente de entre las sombras, para revelar un rostro desconocido para todos, incluido el propio lector.

Una novela inolvidable, «llena de observaciones brillantes, arriesgadas y raudas» —según escribe Colm Tóibín en el prólogo a esta edición—, por una de las voces más importantes de la literatura italiana del siglo XX.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From one of Italy’s greatest writers, 'An ingeniously created novel... Bathed in irony and ambiguity and filled with shimmering, risky, darting observation.' —Colm Toibin, from the introduction.

In a hushed Italian town after the Second World War, Elsa lives with her parents in the house where she was born. Twenty-seven and unmarried, she is of constant concern to her mother, whose status anxiety manifests itself in acute hypochondria. But her mother does not know that Elsa has fallen in love with Tommasino, the elusive youngest son of the De Francisci family. The De Francisci’s own the cloth factory that dominates the town, and Elsa knows the details of their lives as intimately as her own.

In the course of their secret meetings, Elsa begins to imagine a future with Tommasino, free from the constraints of shared history and expectation. But all of this is threatened when their relationship is revealed.

An elegant, spare novel reminiscent of Chekhov, Voices in the Evening is an unforgettable story about first love and lost chances, from one of the greatest Italian writers of the twentieth century.
