Premio Sor Juana In s de la Cruz por La dimensi n desconocida «Nona Fern ndez es incomparable . --Patti Smith Esta novela no la protagonizan seres extraterrestres sino Mauricio Hern ndez Norambuena, que podr a ser descrito, parafraseando a Bola o, como uno de los ltimos revolucionarios de las guerras floridas latinoamericanas. Marciano extrema la apuesta de Nona Fern ndez, que ha cruzado audazmente la memoria y la imaginaci n para entender la historia reciente de Chile, sumergi ndose en zonas que parecen salirse de los l mites terrenales, en las que espacio y tiempo no son tan claros. La narradora visita a Hern ndez en la c rcel donde cumple una larga condena para hacerle preguntas, convocando en un notable tejido de voces a varios personajes a fin de entender c mo fue su historia: la de alguien que, mientras cultivaba amores y amistades inextinguibles, agit la resistencia a la dictadura, estuvo fusil en mano en el atentado a Pinochet y luego, ya en democracia, deriv en ilusiones perdidas, muertes, prisiones y fugas. Una novela electrizante, que aterriza en la mente de un personaje complejo para entenderlo en toda su intensidad y contradicci n. ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONThe latest Nona Fern ndez novel--a cinematic story about Mauricio Hern ndez Norambuena.Sor Juana In s de la Cruz Award for The Twilight Zone"Nona Fern ndez is incomparable." --Patti Smith Aliens are not the protagonists of this novel, but Mauricio Hern ndez Norambuena, who could be described, paraphrasing Bola o, as one of the last revolutionaries in Latin American flower wars. Martian maximizes Nona Fern ndez' bet, having boldly crossed memory and imaginary to understand Chile's recent history, plunging into places that seem to spill out of earthly bounds, where time and space are unclear. Our narrator visits Hern ndez in prison, where he serves a long sentence, to ask him a few questions, invoking, in a remarkable tapestry of voices, several characters in order to understand his story: someone who, while cultivating unquenchable affairs and friendships, chose to resist a dictatorship, held a rifle in the attempt against Pinochet, and then, in a democracy, drifted to lost illusions, deaths, prisons, and escapes. An electrifying novel that lands in the mind of a complex character to understand him in all his intensity and contradictions.
