Synopsis "Leviatán (in Spanish)"

Todo empieza a partir de una sospecha: ha fallecido un hombre en una explosión y, por el momento, el FBI no ha logrado identificarlo. Para el narrador de la historia, Peter Aaron, todo apunta a que se trata de su viejo amigo Benjamin Sachs, desaparecido desde hace algún tiempo. Para averiguar los motivos que pueden haberlo llevado al fatal desenlace, reconstruirá las vivencias del malogrado Sachs, con quien Aaron comparte algo más que un pasado. Leviatán es una de las novelas más originales de Paul Auster, una narración de vidas entrelazadas, de revelaciones y de sueños quebrados. Es, en definitiva, una obra fascinante de un maestro de la narrativa. «Auster es un novelista genial.» - Time Out
