Synopsis "Últimos testigos (in Spanish)"

De la Premio Nobel de Literatura 2015, una obra maestra inédita hasta ahora que recoge el recuerdo de los niños que sobrevivieron a la segunda guerra mundial. Un tema de gran interés desde una perspectiva totalmente distinta.


La Segunda Guerra Mundial dejó casi trece millones de niños muertos, y en 1945, solo en Bielorrusia, vivían en los orfanatos unos veintisiete mil huérfanos, resultado de la devastación producida por la guerra en ese país. A finales de los años ochenta Svetlana Alexiévich, ganadora del Premio Nobel, entrevistó a algunos de aquellos huérfanos, cuyos testimonios componen un emocionante relato de una de las mayores tragedias de la historia.

Esta obra maestra constituye un retrato personal y conmovedor del conflicto en Bielorrusia, una historia en la que la propia autora no interviene más allá del prólogo: son sus protagonistas los que hablan y conforman con sus palabras una especie de memoria coral original, auténtica y fascinante de la guerra.

 

«[...] por su escritura polifónica, que es un monumento al valor y al sufrimiento en nuestro tiempo.», palabras del Jurado de la Academia Sueca al otorgar a la autora el Premio Nobel de Literatura 2015.

 

«Me dedico a la historia omitida, las huellas imperceptibles de nuestro paso por la tierra y por el tiempo. Recojo la cotidianidad de los sentimientos, los pensamientos y las palabras. Intento captar la vida cotidiana del alma.»

Svetlana Alexiévich

 

Reseña:

«Alexiévich lleva más de treinta años luchando con censores y tiranos para dar voz a los sin voz.»

View Author's Page
Writer Svetlana Alexievich is known for her innovative narrative approach that combines oral testimony and literature to explore the major events and tragedies of the 20th and 21st centuries. Born on May 31, 1948, in Stanislav (now Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine), Alexievich grew up in Belarus, where her family settled shortly after her birth

After studying journalism at the University of Minsk, Alexievich worked as a teacher, reporter, and editor, developing a particular interest in the individual stories of ordinary people affected by historical events. This distinctive approach led her to create a unique literary style, which she herself defines as "novels of voices"

Her first book, The Unwomanly Face of War (1983), compiled the accounts of Soviet women who participated in World War II, revealing their experiences from an intimate and previously unexplored perspective. This work, like many that followed, encountered censorship from Soviet authorities, but also received great recognition for its authenticity and depth

Other of her most influential works include Zinky Boys (1989), which addresses the experiences of Soviet soldiers in the Afghanistan war, and Voices from Chernobyl (1997), a harrowing choral account of the 1986 nuclear tragedy. These books, along with The End of the "Homo Sovieticus" (2013), have established Alexievich as one of the most important chroniclers of the post-Soviet world.
