Por primera vez un volumen rene la historia de Espaa escrita por Arturo PrezReverte durante ms de cuatro aos en su columna Patente de corso del XL Semanal.Un relato ameno, personal, a ratos irnico, pero siempre nico, de nuestra accidentada historia a travs de los siglos. Una obra concebida por el autor para, en palabras suyas, divertirme, releer y disfrutar; un pretexto para mirar atrs desde los tiempos remotos hasta el presente, reflexionar un poco sobre ello y contarlo por escrito de una manera poco ortodoxa.A lo largo de los 91 captulos ms el eplogo de los que consta el libro, Arturo PrezReverte narra los principales acontecimientos ocurridos desde los orgenes de nuestra historia y hasta el final de la Transicin con una mirada subjetiva, construida con las dosis exactas de lecturas, experiencia y sentido comn. La misma mirada con que escribo novelas y artculos dice el autor; no la eleg yo, sino que es resultado de todas esas cosas: la visin, cida ms a menudo que dulce, de quien, como dice un personaje de una de mis novelas, sabe que ser lcido en Espaa aparej siempre mucha amargura, mucha soledad y mucha desesperanza.. Arturo PrezReverteENGLISH DESCRIPTIONFor the first time, one volume gathers the history of Spain as written by Arturo PrezReverte over the course of more than four years in his Patente de corso (Carte Blanche) column for XL Semanal.An entertaining, personal, and sometimes ironic but always unique tale of Spains turbulent history throughout the centuries. A work conceptualized by the author to, in his words, entertain me, reread and enjoy; a pretext for looking back through time from the very beginning until the present, reflecting a little about it, and telling it in writing in an unorthodox way.Throughout the 91 chapters plus the epilogue of the book, Arturo PrezReverte narrates the main events from Spains origin and up through the end of the Transition with a subjective view, made up of precise measures of reading, experience, and common sense. The same view with which I write novels and articles, says the author, ... I didnt choose it myself; its the result of all those things: as one of my novels characters says it, its the vision, harsh yet frequently sweet, of someone who knows that being lucid in Spain has always entailed bitterness, loneliness, and despair. Arturo PrezReverte
