La Misteriosa Llama De La Reina Loana /the Mysterious Flame Of Queen Loana

Resumen del libro

Una novela llamemosle existencialista, y a la vez un juego de la inteligencia La Vanguardia Yambo es un hombre de sesenta anos que, tras sufrir un accidente, ha perdido la memoria personal, la mas ligada a las emociones, y ve su propia vida como si acabara de inaugurarla. Para recuperarse, pasa una temporada en el caseron de Solara, un pueblo en las colinas piamontesas, donde paso su infancia. En el desvan estan guardados los libros, los comics, los discos, los recortes de periodico y los carteles de las peliculas que lo acompanaron en los primeros anos de su vida. Yambo inicia entonces una labor casi detectivesca por volver a dibujar el pasado a traves de estos objetos, cosas nuevas que le hablan de un mundo que fue el suyo y el de todas las personas que vivieron los momentos mas importantes del siglo xx. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Yambo, a sixtyish rare-book dealer who lives in Milan, has suffered a loss of memory-he can remember the plot of every book he has ever read, every line of poetry, but he no longer knows his own name, doesnt recognize his wife or his daughters, and remembers nothing about his parents or his childhood. In an effort to retrieve his past, he withdraws to the family home somewhere in the hills between Milan and Turin. There, in the sprawling attic, he searches through boxes of old newspapers, comics, records, photo albums, and adolescent diaries. And so Yambo relives the story of his generation: Mussolini, Catholic education and guilt, Josephine Baker, Flash Gordon, Fred Astaire. His memories run wild, and the life racing before his eyes takes the form of a graphic novel. Yambo struggles through the frames to capture one simple, innocent image: that of his first love. A fascinating, abundant new novel-wide-ranging, nostalgic, funny, full of heart-from the incomparable Eco.
