El amor y la lealtad son puestos a pueba en esta novela llena de bro y agudeza de la reconocida autora puertorriquea, Rosario Ferr, autora de La casa de la laguna.Se trata de la historia de una bailarina famosa mundialmente que, en el 1917, visita a Puerto Rico en gira artstica y se enamora locamente de un atrevido revolucionario al que le dobla la edad. La imperiosa Madame ha regido su vida por la norma, 'el artista debe anteponer siempre su arte al amor.' Al enamorarse Madame, sin embargo, no solo rueda por el piso su antigua doctrina, sino que pierde el respeto de sus jvenes bailarinas, quines juzgan que Madame las ha traicionado. A esta deslealtad a los ideales artsticos se entreteje la agitacin de los disturbios polticos locales, en los cuales Madame y su grupo tambin se ven involucrados. La revolucin rusa los ha dejado sin patria, varados en una isla desgarrada por una guerra de independencia subversiva y solapada, que nadie en la colonia se atreve a mencionar abiertamente.Las aventuras de Madame son narradas por Masha, su devota seguidora y dama de compaa, quin tiene un ojo perspicaz y describe las tensiones a punto de explotar bajo la superficie aparentemente tranquila del paraso tropical. Masha sufre a su vez una metamrfosis a causa de la sensualidad del ambiente, y su vida se transforma. Ferr ha tejido aqu, en un rico tapiz de intriga romntica y conspiracin poltica, un retrato convincente de la burguesa caribea, probando as porqu se le considera hoy una de las novelistas ms dotadas de Amrica Latina.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONThe story of a prima ballerina and her acolyte, set in Puerto Rico in 1917.Flight of the Swan is the compelling story of a worldfamous Russian prima ballerina who finds herself stranded on a Caribbean island in 1917, due to political upheavals in her own country. This charming jeu d'esprit explores the complexities of love and betrayal, as the loyal servant Masha gradually comes to recognize that in spite of what she sees as Madame's propensity to be both pretentious and vain, the ballerina is prepared to sacrifice everything for her art. Madame's unfaltering commitment to dance above all else and her demand of nothing less from her disciples forces Masha to question what choices she herself is willing to make when it comes to her own loves, ideals, and relationships.Humorous, engaging, and coyly revealing, Flight of the Swan traces the decisions made by Masha, Madame, and other members of the troupe during their enforced threemonth stay in Puerto Rico, and in doing so raises the question of where true happiness lies.
