Una indagación dolorosa sobre los secretos de los seres queridos. Un retrato desgarrador de una familia, de un tiempo, de un país.
Maldita sea la hora en que se me ocurrió escribir esta novela . Con esta frase, Gonzalo Celorio abre Los apóstatas, una novela que en su propio proceso de escritura va descubriendo las historias secretas y atroces de los dos protagonistas: sus hermanos Eduardo y Miguel, personajes que se ven compelidos a abrigar una vocación religiosa en la que ambos fracasan, pero que, de diferentes modos, los marca de por vida. Tras su apostasía, se enfrentan a dos destinos contrapuestos: uno se orienta por los caminos de la teología de la liberación, trabaja en las comunidades indígenas de México y participa en el proceso político que acabó con la dictadura somocista de Nicaragua; otro se dedica al estudio de la arquitectura barroca mexicana y acaba poseído por una obsesión satánica que lo obnubila en sus últimos días.
Novela dolorosa, crítica, denunciatoria, admirablemente escrita, Los apóstatas construye ante nuestros ojos un retrato desgarrador de una familia, de un tiempo y de un país.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A painful inquiry into the secrets of loved ones. A heartbreaking portrait of a family, a time, and a country.
"Damn the moment I thought of writing this novel." With this phrase, Gonzalo Celorio opens The Apostates, a novel that, in its very process of writing, uncovers the secret and harrowing stories of its two protagonists: his brothers Eduardo and Miguel, compelled to embrace a religious vocation in which both fail, but which, in different ways, marks them for life. After their apostasy, they face two opposing destinies: one follows the path of liberation theology, working in Mexico's indigenous communities and participating in the political process that ended Nicaragua's Somoza dictatorship; the other devotes himself to the study of Mexican baroque architecture and ends up consumed by a satanic obsession that clouds his final days.
Painful, critical, denunciatory, and admirably written, The Apostates builds before our eyes a heartbreaking portrait of a family, a time, and a country.
