Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. La extrana desaparicion de Esme Lennox es una historia hermosa e inquietante, que aborda sin ambages el peso de las convenciones sociales y la tortuosa complejidad de los lazos familiares. De la autora ganadora del Women's Prize for Fiction 2020 por su novela Hamnet. Ante el inminente cierre del viejo hospital psiquiatrico de Cauldstone, en Edimburgo, las autoridades comunican a Iris que debe hacerse cargo de su tia abuela Esme Lennox, quien sera puesta en libertad tras sesenta y un anos de internamiento. El desconcierto inicial de la joven, que desconocia la existencia de la anciana, se vera pronto superado por una genuina curiosidad. Que motivo llevo a la reclusion de Esme cuando tenia solo dieciseis anos? Por que se oculto su historia al resto de la familia durante decadas? Entre los recuerdos de Esme y los escasos momentos de lucidez de su abuela Kitty, Iris reconstruye la vida de las dos hermanas: la infancia en la India y la primera juventud en Escocia, el rechazo de la joven Esme a las rigidas reglas de la alta burguesia escocesa y, repentinamente, la terrible exclusion. Asi, bajo el cumulo de revelaciones late un misterio cuyo suspense va creciendo a lo largo del relato hasta alcanzar un desenlace tan original como impactante. Maggie O'Farrell es una de las voces mas sobresalientes y reconocidas de la narrativa escocesa actual. Con su brillante imaginacion y su talento para construir personajes memorables y transmitir emociones, logra mantener sin aliento al lector hasta la ultima pagina.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONFrom The New York Times best-selling author of Hamnet comes a gothic, intricate tale of family secrets, lost lives, and the freedom brought by truth In the middle of tending to the everyday business at her vintage-clothing shop and sidestepping her married boyfriends attempts at commitment, Iris Lockhart receives a stunning phone call: Her great-aunt Esme, whom she never knew existed, is being released from Cauldstone Hospital where she has been locked away for more than 61 years. Iriss grandmother Kitty always claimed to be an only child. But Esmes papers prove she is Kittys sister, and Iris can see the shadow of her dead father in Esme's face. Esme has been labeled harmlesssane enough to coexist with the rest of the world. But shes still basically a stranger, a family member never mentioned by the family, and one who is sure to bring life-altering secrets with her when she leaves the ward. If Iris takes her in, what dangerous truths might she inherit? Exposing the seedy past of Victorian asylums, the oppression of family secrets, and the way truth can change everything, The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox will haunt you long past its final page.
