Todo oscuro, sin estrellas
by Stephen KingCuatro venganzas. Cuatro castigos. Cuatro novelas cortas sumamente sorprendentes y enormemente impactantes. No las podrás olvidar. «Creo que existe otro hombre dentro de cada hombre, un extraño...» son palabras de la confesión que escribe Wilfred Leland James en «1922», el primer relato de este cuarteto hipnotizador y profundamente oscuro. El ser desconocido que James lleva dentro se despierta cuando su esposa Arlette le anuncia que piensa vender el terreno que acaba de heredar y que va a trasladarse a la ciudad. Sus palabras le empujan hacia el asesinato y la locura. En «Camionero grande» Tess, una escritora de novelas simpáticas de intriga, se encuentra con un hombre gigantesco cuando vuelve a casa por una carretera rural después de dar una charla en un club de lectura. Violada y abandonada tras ser dada por muerta, Tess planea su venganza y para llevarla a cabo tendrá que sacar de sí misma un lado totalmente desconocido. «Una extensión justa», el relato más corto, es el más malvado y el más divertido. Harry Streeter hace un pacto con el diablo, quien le quitará no solamente su cáncer mortal, sino también todos los rencores que había sentido en su vida. Y finalmente, en «Un buen matrimonio» conocemos a Darcy Anderson quien, un día en que su marido está fuera por trabajo, va a buscar pilas al garaje y descubre una caja que él tenía allí escondida. Su contenido es tan horrendo como el ser desconocido que hay dentro de su marido. En un solo instante acabarán felices años de matrimonio. La crítica ha dicho...«¿Todo oscuro? ¿Sin estrellas? Mentira. Porque en estos cuatro relatos hay siempre una luz que ilumina las salpicaduras de sangre.»ABC «Todo oscuro, sin estrellas es una colección de relatos extraordinaria, terrorífica, sin piedad.

La nueva novela de Marcelo Figueras es una aventura fascinante que combina su talento para contar con sucesos de la historia argentina reciente: el estallido social de 2001 sirve de escenario para una ficción que retrata la crisis emblemática de los últimos años. Pero no todo son hechos reales, en la sede de la clínica psiquiátrica donde el doctor Pons empieza a trabajar hay situaciones que no se pueden explicar en términos realistas: casos de violencia exagerada son asumidos como habituales, apenas hay información sobre los pacientes internados y sobre los propietarios de la clínica, ¿qué significan esas extrañas inscripciones de la Divina Comedia en las paredes de la vieja casona de Tigre? "¿De veras cree que el mal no existe? Porque uno mira en derredor y ve cada cosa, a cierta gente... y siente que conoce al mal cara a cara." Tomás Pons es un psiquiatra histriónico y popular entre sus compañeros del Hospital Alvear. Estamos en el año 2001 y el clima enrarecido de la ciudad de Buenos Aires hace mella en él. Recién separado de la madre de su único hijo, con más gastos que entradas y pocas perspectivas de mejorar, recibe una oferta que no puede rechazar: un puesto jerárquico en una clínica privada de la que nunca escuchó hablar y que tiene sede en una remota isla del Delta de Tigre. La clínica es una casona antigua, bien cuidada y rodeada de naturaleza exuberante. Los pacientes deambulan por el jardín y parece reinar la armonía, una calma sobrenatural. De a poco, Pons comienza a percibir extraños movimientos y presencia situaciones extremas que se resuelven con violencia inusitada. También descubre inscripciones en las paredes, textuales de la Divina Comedia. Las preguntas se le acumulan. ¿Quiénes son los verdaderos dueños de la clínica? ¿Por qué retacean la información sobre los pacientes? ¿Cuál es el rol de la bella Sophía, quien parece conocer todos los secretos de la institución? Con una trama diabólica, la nueva novela de Marcelo Figueras es una fascinante aventura literaria que borra los límites entre la realidad y la fantasía.
