Synopsis "El ojo Castaño de Nuestro Amor"

Aquí encontraremos remembranzas sobre paradisíacas islas en medio del Danubio, reflexiones acerca de los peligros de la adicción al café soluble y confesiones íntimas sobre el amor, la muerte y la nostalgia que culminan con la estremecedora "El ojo castaño de nuestro amor", dedicada al hermano gemelo perdido en trágicas circunstancias. Delicados artefactos narrativos absolutamente inseparables del "animal literario" que es su autor, como nos demuestra el extraño descubrimiento que hace en la Lolita, de Nabokov, o la descripción de los días previos a la muerte de Ovidio en el exilio. Todo ello se une, como las cucarachas que según él Darwin se entretenía en ensartar en un palo, para configurar una suerte de arqueología en la que descubrimos las claves que nos llevan a entender a uno de los autores primordiales de la narrativa centroeuropea.

Mircea Cartarescu was born on June 1, 1956 in Bucharest, Romania into a middle-class family. From an early age, he showed a strong interest in literature and music, influenced by the counterculture of the 60s and 70s. He pursued his studies at the University of Bucharest, in the faculty of letters where he earned a PhD with a fascinating thesis on Romanian postmodernism. He has been a university professor, editor, and contributor to literary magazines, as well as an active member of the Romanian PEN Club and the European Cultural Parliament.

He began his literary career as a poet in 1978 and published his first book, Faurir, vitrin, fotografii (1980), which earned him the Romanian Writers' Union Award. His work is characterized by lyrical, dreamlike, and experimental prose, in which the boundary between reality and dream blurs. He has explored themes such as memory, identity, recent Romanian history, and the transformative power of literature.

He was awarded the prestigious Formentor Prize for Literature, and has received awards of the importance of the Leipzig Book Award for European Understanding, the Gregor von Rezzori Prize, the Thomas Mann Prize, the Austrian State Prize for European Literature, and the FIL Prize for Literature in Romance Languages. His texts have been translated into more than a dozen languages.
