Seiobo, una deidad japonesa que tiene en su jardín un melocotonero que florece cada trescientos años y cuyo fruto da la inmortalidad, decide volver a la Tierra en busca de un atisbo de perfección: la belleza, por fugaz que sea, revela lo sagrado, que a menudo apenas somos capaces de soportar. En su viaje, Seiobo explora el Japon que perpetua algunos rituales desde hace siglos; contempla la pintura en la Rusia medieval o en la Italia del Renacimiento; escucha la musica del Barroco y sobrevuela la Acropolis de Grecia, la Alhambra de Granada o la Pedrera de Barcelona. Una obra melancolica y turbadora en la que Krasznahorkai indaga en el extraordinario consuelo de la belleza y nos ofrece su singular perspectiva de la inmanencia.PREMIO NOBEL DE LITERATURA 2025La prosa de Krasznahorkai adquiere la cadencia casi liturgica de un libro de meditacion y asi es como oficia el, a menudo con una escritura sugerente y a veces extenuante, hasta un final que habla de la esencial continuidad de la muerte igual que ha hablado de la esencia de la belleza como reflejo ocasional de lo sagrado.Jose Maria Guelbenzu, El Pais BabeliaKrasznahorkai es hijo del arte de la prosa narrativa torrencial de Schnitzler y Karl Kraus, y hermano de Claudio Magris y su Danubio. El lector que supere sus retos y el discurso cultural, obtendra una recompensa merecida.Javier Nogueira, El ProgresoKrasznahorkai enseña a leer de nuevo. En el sentido mas literal: siguiendo el delicado mecanismo de sus frases perfectas, que se extienden a veces a lo largo de paginas enteras, los musculos del ojo aprenden otra vez a deslizarse por la hoja impresa. Pero tambien en un sentido mas profundo: conectando las inquietantes imagenes que recurren a lo largo de su flujo narrativo, el cerebro experimenta una tormenta electrica; el alma, una sacudida brutal.Valeria Luiselli, El Pais SemanalDescomunal proeza intelectual -con paginas muy brillantes sobre la Alhambra- de alguien llamado a conseguir el premio Nobel si acaso el premio Nobel recupera -milagrosamente- el juicio.Alberto Olmos, El ConfidencialCon un pie en la vida y el otro en Dios, con un pie en la tierra y otro en el infierno, Krasznahorkai nos ayuda a descubrir las aterradoras bellezas de este mundo. Y lo hace en un libro abundante, precioso y detallado que recomiendo encarecidamente.Ignasi Mena, Llegir en cas dincendiKrasznahorkai tiene algo que le hace unico.
