Overview
Una novela de una imaginación desbordante que explora el lugar entre lo que nos arrastra a nuestros orígenes y lo que nos impulsa hacia nuevos caminos; ese lugar es Yomurí.
«Una pequeña joya de la literatura chilena.» -Martín Parra
«Tantos días y noches en vela imaginando la llegada del enemigo y otra vez con la burocracia. Qué falta de razón hay en todo».

Ambos toman entonces un tren al sur en busca de una media hermana escurridiza y del sueño del padre de pacificar a su desunida familia. En su peregrinar se encuentran con un grupo que viaja en la misma dirección a recuperar sus tierras ancestrales. Pronto se darán cuenta de que el pasado los une. Padre e hija se suman a esta misión, llena de personajes y situaciones alucinantes, que los llevará experimentar el desconcierto y la contradicción.
Con una escritura deslumbrante donde las imágenes y los objetos cobran a menudo el protagonismo, esta novela de Cynthia Rimsky despliega mundos y abismos en los que la imaginación, la risa y la curiosidad ponen en movimiento una inolvidable aventura.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A novel with overflowing imagination that explores the space between what drags us to our origins and what drives us towards new paths. That place is Yomurí.
“So many days and nights awake, imagining the arrival of the enemy, and again with the bureaucracy. What a lack of logic there is to everything.”
Eliza needs to leave her lovesick father in a nursing home, but he refuses. They then take a train south in search of a scurry half sister and a father’s dream to appease his broken family. In their pilgrimage, they come across a group traveling in the same direction, on their way to retake their ancestral land. Soon they realize they are united by a common past. Father and daughter join the quest, filled with mind-blowing characters and situations, that will lead them to experience uncertainty and contradiction.
With a dazzling narrative where images and objects often take protagonism, this Cynthia Rimsky novel displays worlds and abysses in which imagination, laughter, and curiosity set in motion an unforgettable adventure.
