La insomne Aurora: La pluma del Amor

by Maruska Creanza

En una calurosa noche de verano del 1650, el rey Stéfano, atrapado por un calor tormentoso, decidió levantarse y tomar un poco de agua fresca del pozo. Y mientras recorría, abatido, el largo corredor de su castillo, vislumbro a lo lejos una luz. Resopló y sacudió la cabeza. “¡Es Aurora, seguramente!”. Murmuró. Él sabía el tremendo defecto que se había apoderado de su única hija. El rey la vio tambalearse e ir hacia las cocinas reales. Hoy había sido servido para el almuerzo, cordero con patatas, y su voraz hija cada tanto hacia asaltos a la despensa. El sacudió la cabeza, para no verla clavar los caninos en la carne, y dar batalla sin descanso a las patatas, decidió que se habría aguantado la sed. Su esposa Serafina, la reina, que era cualquier cosa excepto tranquila, lo vio entrar enojado. “¿Entonces, esposo real? ¿El agua?” El la miró resoplando. Serafina con la mascarilla verde a la sandía no era precisamente un lindo espectáculo, pero era muy quisquillosa, por tanto, sobre algunas cosas, era mejor callarse... por la paz familiar! “Se me pasó la sed... he visto a Aurora dirigirse hacia las cocinas!”

La primera vez en el Londres bombardeado de 1940, cuando durante los ensayos de la ópera escucha por primera vez su voz. En 1949 vuelven a encontrarse en Ciudad de México, ella ya como una diva de la ópera. Atlan-Ferrara ha cambiado también y es ya uno de los más importantes directores de orquesta. El último encuentro tiene lugar en 1967 en Londres, donde él decide romper todas las convenciones de la ópera llevando la música hasta las últimas consecuencias.La historia del amor imposible y la del reencuentro de una pareja separada desde el principio de los tiempos, cuyos reencuentros continúan en una espiral infinita hacia el futuro.La crítica ha opinado:"No es el de Instinto de Inez un ejercicio de estilo o un pasatiempo sino un exorcismo poético, es decir: un acto real. De ahí que su lectura produzca un inexplicable, bienvenido alivio." -Adolfo Castañón, Letras Libres-

The operation takes less than two minutes. Luke will wake up at The Institute, in a room that looks just like his own, except there&’s no window. And outside his door are other doors, behind which are other kids with special talents—telekinesis and telepathy—who got to this place the same way Luke did: Kalisha, Nick, George, Iris, and ten-year-old Avery Dixon. They are all in Front Half. Others, Luke learns, graduated to Back Half, &“like the roach motel,&” Kalisha says. &“You check in, but you don&’t check out.&” In this most sinister of institutions, the director, Mrs. Sigsby, and her staff are ruthlessly dedicated to extracting from these children the force of their extranormal gifts. There are no scruples here. If you go along, you get tokens for the vending machines. If you don&’t, punishment is brutal. As each new victim disappears to Back Half, Luke becomes more and more desperate to get out and get help. But no one has ever escaped from the Institute. As psychically terrifying as Firestarter, and with the spectacular kid power of It, The Institute is &“first-rate entertainment that has something important to say. We all need to listen&” (The Washington Post).
