About the Book



June 2086. A virus has done away with humanity and there are only two people left on the entire planet: a young man and an old man who will soon cease to exist. These last two survivors contemplate the ruins of humanity. All wars are over, there is no more famine in the world, and the beasts created by man have disappeared. Did it take a major world destruction for someone to get excited about a sunset again? Will it take for mankind to disappear in order to be aware of what he became? Amigorena offers a highly poetic novel and brings us face to face with the future while he ponders about the mistakes man made that could end all of humanity.



Book Synopsis



El libro que inspiró la película con Charlotte Rampling and Nick Nolte

Año 2086. Un virus ha terminado con el planeta y los últimos supervivientes
contemplan las ruinas de la humanidad.

Junio de 2086. Un virus ha terminado con la humanidad y no quedan más que dos personas en todo el planeta: un joven y un anciano que pronto dejará de existir. Estos dos últimos supervivientes contemplan las ruinas de la humanidad. Las guerras han terminado, ya no hay hambre en el mundo y las bestias creadas por el hombre fueron desapareciendo. ¿Hacía falta una gran destrucción para que alguien se emocione de nuevo ante una puesta de sol? ¿Hará falta que desaparezca el hombre para ser conscientes de lo que llegó a ser?

Amigorena firma una novela de gran carga poética y nos sitúa cara a cara con un futuro cada vez más cercano mientras se pregunta por los errores del hombre que podrían acabar con la humanidad.

«Leí este libro como hace mucho que no leía ninguno.» --Martín Caparrós

«Una potente meditación acerca del exilio y del peso del silencio en el corazón de una familia.» --La Croix

«He aquí una novela con voz y modulación, una novela susurrada, una novela inquietante con páginas perturbadoras.» --Le Figaro

«Amigorena se une a Primo Levi, Jorge Semprún o Imre Kertész poniendo su ladrillo en el edificio erigido en memoria de todas las víctimas del Holocausto y, más allá, de la humanidad. Un gran libro.» --Culturebox

«El gueto interior es un libro magnífico e inmensamente desconcertante, donde los silencios son centrales, como la culpabilidad.» --La Libre Belgique
