�En el medioambiente de la orilla. Al borde del acantilado. Donde las palabras todav�a quieren decir y no dominar, como seres de una naturaleza salvaje, donde la vida tiembla de miedo, asombro o risa. Ah� es donde escribo�. La tierra oculta re�ne obras de Manuel Rivas que tienen en com�n la condici�n de literatura de la naturaleza, un manuscrito de la tierra, entendido como espacio real y simb�lico de emergencia, abandono, crisis y lucha contra la extinci�n. Este volumen incluye libros fundamentales de Rivas --Un mill�n de vacas, galardonado con el Premio de la Cr�tica espa�ola, Los comedores de patatas, y En salvaje compa��a, Premio de la Cr�tica gallega-- en una nueva edici�n revisada por el autor, e incluye tambi�n una antolog�a de relatos titulada Los habitantes de la dificultad. Todos ellos proponen una mirada al universo rural alejada del costumbrismo y pueden leerse como met�fora del mundo en que vivimos. Una literatura en la que todo habla, personas humanas y no humanas, y en la que la imaginaci�n es una llave para adentrarse en la zona de sombra de la realidad. La de La tierra oculta es una escritura anticipatoria, a contraviento, con el sello de un humor e iron�a que retrata la injusticia o es v�nculo en el desamparo. Un �camino de luci�rnagas� que intenta desvelar lo que no est� bien visto. Porque se ignora o porque desasosiega. Una obra de des-extinci�n. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "In that seaside environment. At the edge of the cliff. Where words still want to express and not overpower, as beings of a wild nature, where life trembles with fear, amazement, or laughter. This is where I'm writing." The Hidden Land collects the works of Manuel Rivas that have in common a natural literary condition, being a manuscript of soil, understood as a real and symbolic space of emergency, abandonment, crisis, and a battle against extinction. This volume includes Rivas' essential works ( One Million Cows , recipient of the Spanish Critics Award; The Potato Eaters , and In Wild Company , recipient of the Galician Critics Award) in a new edition, revised by the author. It also contains an anthology of short stories entitled The Inhabitants of Difficulty . All which suggest a look into the rural universe away from regionalism, and can be read as a metaphor for the world we live in. This is a literature in which everything has a voice, human and non-human, and in which imagination is key to walk into the shaded area of reality. The narrative in The Hidden Land is anticipatory, upwind, with a stamp of humor and irony that portrays injustice or communicates helplessness. A "path of fireflies" trying to unveil what is frowned upon. Because it is unknown or because it disturbs. A work of de-extinction.
