Synopsis "Acerca del robo de historias y otros relatos (in Spanish)"

El alma de un cerdo que narra su propio sacrificio el día de Navidad; un encuentro entre dos desconocidos en un aeropuerto; una mujer que ve el pasado con el ojo izquierdo y el futuro con el derecho; viajeros embarcados en trenes nocturnos que cruzan las fronteras de los Balcanes; juegos lingüísticos que conducen a epifanías inesperadas; hombres con muchos nombres y ladrones de historias; rompecabezas, retretes alemanes y viajes metafísicos: todo ello forma parte de la cosmología sorprendente, vitalista y satírica de Gueorgui Gospodínov. Los veintiún relatos reunidos en este título están impregnados de la sátira posmoderna más afilada, sin perder la voluntad cristalina e inagotable de vivir a través de un realismo descarnado.

Un libro que mezcla la complejidad narrativa de Borges y el lirismo de Sylvia Plath. Una colección de relatos magistrales que ha provocado que la crítica y el público se rindan a los pies del escritor búlgaro, traducido ya a más de veinte idiomas y Premio Booker Internacional 2023.

Georgi Gospodinov (Yambol, Bulgaria; 1968) is an author of poetry, narrative, and essays, internationally recognized for his fragmentary and reflective style. In May 2025, The Gardener and Death, a short elegiac novel that narrates filial mourning as his father was dying, was published, a genre that we could place between intimate fiction and literary memory, translated into Spanish by María Vútova and published by Impedimenta. The author has been awarded the prestigious International Booker Prize (2023) and the European Strega Prize (2021), consolidating his position as one of the most suggestive narrative voices in post-communist Europe.

Although The Gardener and Death has not received notable individual awards, the text has been praised by critics as a "wonderful elegy" and has had a significant cultural impact, especially for its subtle and poetic treatment of pain and death. With more than fifteen works published—including Physics of Sadness and The Tempestalities—Gospodinov expands his legacy with this intimate and deeply personal work, reaffirming his mastery in exploring memory and mourning.
