by Juan Gabriel V?squez (Author)

LA NUEVA NOVELA DEL AUTOR PREMIO ALFAGUARA DE NOVELA
UNA FICCI?N CON BASE REAL SOBRE UNA ARTISTA EXCEPCIONAL QUE SUPO ENFRENTARSE A TODAS LAS CONVENCIONES DE SU MUNDO

«V?squez ha sucedido a Garc?a M?rquez como el gran maestro literario de Colombia --Ariel Dorfman, The New York Review of Books

«Me di cuenta de que entender a Feliza era una empresa dif?cil. Nada era sencillo cuando se trataba de ella .

El 8 de enero de 1982, la escultora colombiana Feliza Bursztyn muri? en un restaurante de Par?s. Ten?a cuarenta y ocho a?os. En el momento de su muerte repentina la acompa?aban su marido y cuatro amigos. Uno de ellos, el escritor Gabriel Garc?a M?rquez, public? d?as despu?s un art?culo que inclu?a tres palabras en apariencia simples, pero misteriosas en el fondo: «Muri? de tristeza .
Juan Gabriel V?squez parte de esas palabras para investigar en la vida secreta o desconocida de una mujer extraordinaria. Feliza Bursztyn se enfrent? siempre a la sociedad en la que le toc? vivir. Hija de una pareja de jud?os expatriados en Colombia, artista revolucionaria en un tiempo de revoluciones pol?ticas, mujer de esp?ritu libre en un mundo que desconfiaba de la libertad de las mujeres, llev? una existencia que puso en escena las grandes tensiones del siglo XX y, sobre todo, el deseo de ser due?a de s? misma.

En Los nombres de Feliza el autor funde con maestr?a la autobiograf?a, la realidad y la imaginaci?n para entregar al lector una ficci?n asombrosa y desgarradora sobre c?mo la vida ?ntima de un ser humano se ve inevitablemente arrollada por las fuerzas de la historia y la pol?tica.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

THE LATEST NOVEL BY THE ALFAGUARA NOVEL PRIZE WINNER.

A FICTION BASED IN REALITY ABOUT AN EXCEPTIONAL ARTIST THAT KNEW HOW TO OPPOSE THE CONVENTIONALITIES OF HER WORLD.

"V?squez has succeeded Garc?a M?rquez as Colombia's great literary master." --Ariel Dorfman, The New York Review of Books

"I realized that understanding Feliza was a challenging endeavor. There was nothing simple when it came to her."

On January 8th, 1982, Colombian sculptor Feliza Bursztyn died in a Paris restaurant. She was forty-eight years old. At the time of her sudden death, she was with her husband and four of her friends. One of them, writer Gabriel Garc?a M?rquez, published an article days later, which included four seemingly simple yet deeply mysterious words: "She died of sadness."

Juan Gabriel V?squez takes those words to begin his research on the secret or unknown life of an extraordinary woman. Feliza Bursztyn always confronted the society she lived in. Daughter of an expatriated Jewish couple in Colombia, she was a revolutionary artist in a time of political revolutions, a free-spirited woman in a world suspicious of the freedom of women, who led an existence that staged the great tensions of the twentieth century, and above all, the desire to be her own person.

In Feliza's Names, the author skillfully blends autobiography, reality, and imagination to deliver an amazing and heart-wrenching fiction about how a human being's private life gets inevitably trampled on by the forces of history and politics.
