El nuevo libro del autor considerado por la cr�tica �el Modiano espa�ol� (Le Figaro). Una novela deslumbrante sobre el amor y el deseo. El enamoramiento es un pa�s inventado por el deseo. Tras la muerte de su madre, el hallazgo de unas cartas guardadas durante d�cadas lleva al protagonista de esta novela -un profesor universitario cercano a la sesentena- a revisar su propia vida y la de sus padres, moldeadas y distorsionadas -todas ellas- por sus distintas relaciones amorosas. Convertido en corresponsal de su propia existencia, el narrador se ve inmerso en un combate contra s� mismo que, entre lo instintivo y lo racional, le conduce al convencimiento de ser s�lo un eslab�n de la cadena que le conecta con todos aquellos que a lo largo de los siglos amaron y perdieron. Oriente es una novela sobre el amor como m�scara del deseo y de la pasi�n, cuya grandeza encierra su propio fin. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "The new book by the author considered by critics to be "the Spanish Modiano." -Le Figaro A dazzling novel about love and desire. Falling in love is a country invented by desire. After his mother's death, the discovery of some decades-old letters leads the protagonist of this novel--a university professor close to his sixties--to review his own life and those of his parents, all of which have been shaped and distorted by their different romantic relationships. Now a correspondent of his own life, the narrator finds himself immersed in a combat against himself. Somewhere between instinctive and rational, it leads him to the conviction that he is only a link in the chain that connects him with all those throughout the centuries who have loved and lost. East is a novel about love as a mask of desire and of passion, whose grandeur contains its own end.
