Las cartas del Boom

Mario Vargas Llosa, Carlos Fuentes, and Gabriel Garcia Marqu

La obra de García Márquez es incomprensible sin la de Cortázar, y la de Cortázar es incomprensible sin la de Vargas Llosa, y se establece toda una red que corresponde a algo muy real. Porque yo sé que cada uno de nosotros es muy consciente de lo que están haciendo los demás.» -Carlos Fuentes, 1968

«Este libro reúne, por primera vez, la correspondencia entre los cuatro principales novelistas del Boom Cortázar, Fuentes, García Márquez y Vargas Llosa. Los dos últimos recibieron el Premio Nobel, y los dos primeros lo merecían; a nadie hubiera sorprendido que lo obtuvieran. Esta conversación entre cuatro amigos brillantes y exitosos nos ofrece un acceso sin precedentes a sus relaciones personales y colectivas, con todos sus encuentros y desencuentros, y nos abre una ventana privilegiada a la literatura y la política latinoamericanas, especialmente durante un periodo crucial de su historia moderna, entre 1959 y 1975.

» Las cartas del Boom narra el momento de máximo auge de este cuarteto, en el que los creadores parecían empezar a escribir menos solos para tocar en conjunto como parte de una misma literatura, y ahonda en ese reconocimiento y esa regeneración de un pasado en común.

» Encontrar cuatro grandes escritores en un contexto histórico casi sin paralelo, comunicándose durante varios años para dialogar sobre novela, literatura, historia latinoamericana, sus propias biografías y la dinámica de sus ideas dentro de ese contexto, es absolutamente único. Las páginas de este libro cuentan esa historia.». - Los editores
