Synopsis "La Piedra Lunar (in Spanish)"

Un precioso diamante de color cambiante conocido como la Piedra Lunar es robado de la estatua de un dios hindú por un oficial inglés pese a la maldición que protege la piedra. Años más tarde, su sobrina, una joven adinerada de la sociedad victoriana, hereda la joya por su cumpleaños. Pero la piedra no viaja sola. Tres hindúes siguen sus pasos para recuperar la piedra sagrada. ¿Serán ellos los culpables de la desaparición de la Piedra Lunar esa misma noche? ¿ O alguien se les ha adelantado?Años antes de la aparición de Sherlock Holmes y su descendencia literaria, Wilkie Collins inauguró el género de las novelas de detectives con La Piedra Lunar. En ella parte de una desaparición aparentemente insoluble y recurre a una original estructura narrativa para desentrañar el misterio. Ante la dificultad para resolver el caso, cada uno de los testigos debe escribir detalladamente lo que vio y escuchó durante esos días. Collins despliega así su talento literario y su profundo conocimiento de la condición humana, y consigue perfilar nitidamente a cada uno de los personajes a través de las sospechas, posibles motivaciones e historias secundarias que surgen en sus testimonios, así como por medio de un contraste satírico de sus interpretaciones, en ocasiones opuestas. Una obra maestra que nos presenta una serie de hechos misteriosos desde los dispares puntos de vista de unos personajes inolvidables.
Wilkie Collins
  (Author)
View Author's Page
(London 1824-1889) Playwright, novelist, and prolific short story writer. At 17, he started working at a tea trading company while writing Ioláni, or Tahiti as it was (Gothic no. 32), a work that was not published until over a century after his death. He studied Law and, although he never practiced, he did use his legal knowledge in many of his works, and critics consider him one of the fathers of the detective genre. In 1851, he met Charles Dickens, with whom he formed a deep friendship and published his main works in his weekly All the Year Around. After Dickens' death in 1870, his popularity waned. He suffered from rheumatic gout which eventually led to an opium addiction. His tombstone epitaph highlights him as the author of the novel The Woman in White.
