Synopsis
En el Logos College, al oeste de Texas, jovenes enormes, enfundados en trajes con hombreras gigantes y cascos brillantes, juegan al futbol americano con pasion intensa. En una temporada sorprendentemente victoriosa, el perplejo y distraido jugador Gary Harkness esta obsesionado con la guerra nuclear. Asustado y fascinado a la vez, escucha como sus companeros de equipo discuten las tacticas futbolisticas en los mismos terminos en que los generales hablan del conflicto global. Mientras la terminologia del futbol y la de la guerra nuclear se intercambian, la naturaleza polisemica de las palabras emerge, y Don DeLillo nos obliga a ver mas alla de la realidad esteril de la sustitucion. Esta inteligente novela, la segunda que escribio Don DeLillo e inedita hasta hoy en espanol, es un estudio atemporal de la obsesion del ser humano con el conflicto y la confrontacion.-Un pequeno diamante de invencion comica-, Martin Amis, The New York Times; -Increiblemente divertida, oblicua y llena de juegos, se precipita a traves de brillantes acelerones cinematograficos. Una novela maestra-, The Washington Post; -Nadie puede escribir mejor. Nadie tiene una vision mas clara de los cortocircuitos de la vida posmoderna-, Evening Standard. Description in English: In the Logos College, West Texas, huge young people, dressed with giant shoulder pads and helmets brilliant play football with intense passion. In a surprisingly successful season, perplexed and distracted player Gary Harkness is obsessed with nuclear war. Frightened and fascinated at the same time, he listens to how his teammates footballing tactics are discussed in the same terms that general talk about global conflict. While football terminology and nuclear war are exchanged, the polysemic nature of words emerge, and Don DeLillo forces us to look beyond the sterile reality of replacement. This intelligent novel, the second one written by Don DeLillo and unpublished until today in Spanish, is a timeless study of obsession of humans with conflict and confrontation. A small diamond of comic invention, Martin Amis, The New York Times; Incredibly fun, oblique and full of games, it rushes through brilliant film sprints. A masterpiece novel, The Washington Post; No one can write better.

- v***v (2054)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
