Reviews
«Ramiro Sanchiz es un genio y lo vuelve a demostrar con esta novela de carretera. Una maraña de bioplástico comenzó a invadir mi cerebro al terminar la última página. ¿Ha sido un sueño? ¿O acaso una inteligen - cia totalmente incomprensible ha comenza - do a cancelar nuestro futuro?». Luis Carlos Barragán Castro «Como una suerte de dios cósmico, la ma - raña es un virus, una entidad extraterrestre, una metáfora, un revoltijo psicotrópico de nervios que da y que quita. Nostalgias del futuro que no fue, personajes sorprendentes y el new weird en estado puro, con la pluma de Sanchiz, que cada día toca mejor». Flor Canosa «Ramiro Sanchiz construye una fábula radi- calmente contemporánea y exquisitamente cervantina. Nómada en un postapocalipsis moderado y casi picaresco, el pianista seme - ja una especie de quijote inverso: un archivo viviente de saberes, sensibilidades y técnicas recientes, ya inaplicables pero imposibles de olvidar, que viaja a través de una realidad a menudo grotesca e irreal». Germán Sierra
Synopsis
«Federico Stahl es uno de los grandes personajes de la literatura latinoamericana de este principio de siglo». Edmundo Paz Soldán Todo pasó en los noventa: no solo se acabó el petróleo, sino que de los pozos agotados--y al mismo tiempo de las grandes concentraciones de basura en los océanos--creció la maraña, una forma de vida nueva, capaz de digerir el plástico y tóxica para los seres humanos. Esta gran pandemia casi destruyó la civilización; peor: a medida que avanzó el siglo xxi, la humanidad aprendió a sobrevivir en un mundo ya no globalizado. Un mundo de provincias por el que Federico Stahl, antiguo virtuoso adolescente del piano, se pasea en una gira musical que lo llevará por pueblos oníricos e inquietantes, personajes singulares (como un anciano imitador de Michael Jackson y una estrella enana del porno argentino), carreteras en ruinas dentro de la jungla de maraña y secretos de futuros más extraños aún que acechan en la espesura, entre piratas postapocalípticos, juguetes perdidos y viejas variaciones para piano. Ramiro Sanchiz, una de las voces más particulares de la narrativa uruguaya contemporánea, compone una novela sugerente y seductora, impregnada de melancolía futurista. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Federico Stahl is one of the greatest characters in Latin American literature of this century." --Edmundo Paz Soldán It all happened in the nineties. Oil not only ran out, but the thicket grew from the depleted oilfields--and, at the same time, from the large amount of garbage in the oceans--a new life form capable of digesting plastic, but toxic to human beings. This great pandemic nearly destroyed civilization. Worse: while it progressed during the twenty-first century, humanity learned to survive in a world no longer globalized. A world of provinces where Federico Stahl, former teenage piano virtuoso, wanders in a concert tour that will take him to oneiric and haunting towns, to singular characters (such as an old Michael Jackson impersonator and an Argentinian dwarf porn star), along ruined highways in the thicket, and to secrets of stranger futures lurking in the wilderness, among post-apocalyptic pirates, lost toys, and old piano variations. Ramiro Sanchiz, one of the most peculiar voices in contemporary Uruguayan narrative, composes a suggestive and seductive novel, permeated with futuristic melancholy., &la"Federico Stahl es uno de los grandes personajes de la literatura latinoamericana de este principio de siglo .
