Overview

Nueva traducciĆ³n de una de las novelas mĆ”s emblemĆ”ticas de Margaret Atwood.

Finalista de los prestigiosos premios Booker y Governor Generalā€™s, es un insĆ³lito escrutinio de la vida cultural canadiense desde la Segunda Guerra Mundial hasta los aƱos ochenta. Mediante la forja de la personalidad de su protagonista, desde la infancia hasta la madurez, Margaret Atwood repasa, con la vehemente lucidez que la caracteriza, este fascinante perĆ­odo en el que el progreso del feminismo se entrelaza con la incesante mutaciĆ³n del arte moderno.
Ā 
Con motivo de la primera retrospectiva de su obra en Sub-Versions, una galerĆ­a alternativa de Toronto regentada por un puƱado de mujeres, Elaine Risley, una pintora rodeada de un aura de artista polĆ©mica, regresa a la ciudad y al paisaje de su juventud. El reencuentro con la urbe, antaƱo puritana y gris, ahora destellante bajo las luces de neĆ³n, hace aflorar una profusiĆ³n de recuerdos, entre los que destacan imĆ”genes de su atĆ­pica familia, su excĆ©ntrico y brillante hermano, con quien acostumbraba a jugar a las canicas, y sus antiguas amigas Carol, Grace y, en particular, Cordelia, con las que habĆ­a creado un mundo propio ajeno a las preocupaciones de los adultos.
Ā 
Pasados los aƱos, Elaine prosiguiĆ³ su camino guardando para sĆ­ esa etapa extraƱa de su infancia al que accede gracias a una preciada canica de ojo de gato que le sirve de luz. A travĆ©s de las vĆ­vidas descripciones de obras de arte, la fuerza evocadora de las escenas retrospectivas y la presencia de sutiles pinceladas autobiogrĆ”ficas, Atwood nos ofrece una magnĆ­fica novela de aprendizaje, donde una canica de vidrio transparente con una flor de pĆ©talos de colores en el centro gira y gira en un equilibrio tan precario como la vida de las mujeres, que una vez fueron niƱas. Perturbadora y mordaz, Ojo de gato revela a una escritora en permanente estado de gracia.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Ā 
A breathtaking novel of a woman grappling with the tangled knot of her lifeā€”from the bestselling author of The Handmaid's Tale and The Testaments
Ā 
Disturbing, humorous, and compassionate, Catā€™s Eye is the story of Elaine Risley, a controversial painter who returns to Toronto, the city of her youth, for a retrospective of her art. Engulfed by vivid images of the past, she reminisces about a trio of girls who initiated her into the the fierce politics of childhood and its secret world of friendship, longing, and betrayal. Elaine must come to terms with her own identity as a daughter, a lover, an artist, and a womanā€”but above all she must seek release form her haunting memories.
