Synopsis "El Silbido del Arquero (in Spanish)"

«Una novela breve que dialoga entre épocas, entre exiliados y vidas que recomienzan, entre dioses y hombres. En términos del cine contemporáneo, El silbido del arquero es el remake polifónico de un clásico, escrito con prosa expresiva y muy cuidada, que nos brinda pasajes profundos. -Jaime Panqueva Luego del asedio de Troya, obligado a huir para salvar a su familia, el derrotado héroe Eneas recibe una visión sobre el futuro de su casta. Acompañado de un puñado de sobrevivientes, se embarca hacia lo desconocido y naufraga en Cartago, donde es bien recibido por la reina Elisa y puede, al fin, atisbar la redención de su estirpe. Unos siglos más tarde, el poeta Virgilio recibe del emperador Augusto la encomienda de narrar la gloriosa historia de Roma, enraizada en aquella primera aventura de Eneas. Indeciso por la forma de llevar a cabo esta tarea, el poeta se pasea por la ciudad en busca de la inspiración, incapaz de ignorar la miseria que se oculta detrás del mármol pulido de sus calles. El mito, la historia, la aventura, el romance y la guerra se entrecruzan en esta novela coral para recordarnos que el pasado está imbricado en las fibras del presente. Irene Vallejo da muestras de su erudición y su talento narrativo con cada capítulo, y ejerce un hipnótico llamado a sus lectores para mirar con ojos siempre nuevos las lecciones que el pasado tiene para ofrecer. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "A short novel that dialogues between times, between the exiled and the lives they recommence, between gods and men. In terms of contemporary cinema, The Bowman's Whistle is the polyphonic remake of a classic, written with an expressive and carefully curated prose that offers deep passages." --Jaime Panqueva Forced to escape in order to safe his family after the siege of Troy, the defeated hero Aeneas is granted a vision of the future of his lineage. Accompanied by a handful of survivors, he embarks to the unknown and shipwrecks in Carthage, where he is welcomed by Queen Elisa and at last glimpses at redemption for his family line. A few centuries later, Emperor Augustus commands the poet Virgil to tell the glorious tale of Rome, rooted in that first adventure of Aeneas. Hesitant as to how he should approach his task, the poet rambles through the city looking for inspiration, unable to ignore the misery hidden behind polished marble in the streets. Myth, history, adventure, romance, and war intertwine in this choral novel to remind us that the past is embedded within the fabric of present time. With each chapter, Irene Vallejo gives proof of her erudition and narrative talents, and exerts a hypnotic calling to her readers to always look upon the lessons our past has to offer with a fresh set of eyes.
