Ellos, de Kay Dick

from Fiordo Editorial Hosted by Fiordo

Resguardados en una suerte de paraíso en la costa británica, un grupo de artistas ejercen distintas artes y oficios. Los amenaza una presencia incierta pero ubicua: la de «ellos», que persiguen tácita y declaradamente todas las manifestaciones creativas, todas las demostraciones de sensibilidad. Y en ese contexto de peligro inminente, de pérdida irreparable, de duelo y de temor, el encuentro con los placeres sensuales de la naturaleza, de la amistad, de la conversación, emergen como una forma nueva de resistencia o, tal vez, de convivencia. Ellos fue publicada por primera vez en 1977 y es quizás la obra más extraña e inquietante de Kay Dick, así como, según la crítica, «su libro más andrógino». Hecha de episodios que reiteran un mismo motivo con sucesivas variaciones, y que, en su acumulación, construyen su atmósfera asfixiante y tan elogiada por autores como Margaret Atwood o Emily St. John Mandel, Ellos es una distopía y quizás hasta una profecía que, lejos de perder vigencia, se ha vuelto hoy tremendamente resonante. Recuperada y traducida en los últimos años a distintas lenguas, se presenta en esta edición en la traducción exacta y vibrante de Tomás Downey. Leído por Julia Ariza
