Synopsis "Pilon (in Spanish)"

Erotismo salvaje y la fuerza desesperada de unos aviadores que casi alcanzar lo sobrenatural, en una novela del Premio Nobel William Faulkner. «No son humanos como nosotros... Estréllelos y ni siquiera sangrarán cuando los saque: será aceite lubricante...» William Faulkner sentía una gran pasión por el mundo de los aviones. Pilón es la novela en la que rinde homenaje a ese mundo de seres temerarios que no dudan en poner su vida en peligro por un instante de gloria en el aire, ante la mirada de asombro de los asistentes al espectáculo. En este escenario se desarrolla la historia de un original trío amoroso formado por la rubia Laverne, Roger Shumann -lo más parecido a un héroe clásico- y un paracaidista, personaje oscuro, siempre cojeante. Junto a ellos un reportero sin nombre, en el que no resulta difícil reconocer rasgos del propio autor. Durante los días que dura el festival aéreo, se dejará arrastrar por estas personas extraordinarias que parecen vivir solo para sus máquinas de volar. Juan Carlos Onetti dijo...«La riqueza y el dominio del inglés de William Faulkner equivalen a lo que buscó y obtuvo William Shakespeare.»

William Faulkner (1897-1962) was an American writer noted for his contribution to modernist literature and the Southern Gothic genre. He is known for his innovative use of stream of consciousness, fragmented narratives, and exploration of the Southern United States. Among his most important works are The Sound and the Fury (1929), As I Lay Dying (1930), Absalom, Absalom! (1936), and Light in August (1932).

His literature, laden with symbolism and structural complexity, portrays the decay of the American South and its racial and social conflicts. In 1949, he received the Nobel Prize in Literature, establishing himself as one of the most influential figures in 20th-century narrative. He also won two Pulitzer Prizes for A Fable (1954) and The Reivers (1962).
