George Falconer, un profesor inglés de mediana edad, lucha por sobreponerse a la repentina muerte de su pareja, Jim, en un accidente de coche. Corre el año 1962, y pese a la vida privilegiada que lleva en Los Ángeles, su rutina se ha convertido en un doloroso recordatorio de lo único que le permitía soportar el opresivo «sueño americano»: la intimidad amorosa en la que podía comportarse espontáneamente y liberarse de los disfraces que le impone la sociedad. Pero además, la pérdida confronta abruptamente a George con su edad, con el paso del tiempo, con su pasado y, en última instancia, con el horizonte de su propia muerte. Un hombre soltero es una de las novelas más aclamadas de Isherwood, que la consideraba su obra maestra, una elaboración original y extraordinaria del drama de la existencia en el mundo contemporáneo.

Softcover. Condition: New. 1a.ed. en esta colección. 15x23 cm. Colección Sexto Piso Realidades. 286 p. Rústica con solapas. Sprache: Spanisch, NUEVO / NEU / NEW. En 1947, casi treinta años antes de que Bruce Chatwin emprendiera su ya mítico viaje a la Patagonia, Christopher Isherwood se embarcó en una travesía de seis meses por Sudamérica. Evitó deliberadamente leer a profundidad sobre el continente, pues la aspiración de quien hace un diario «es más la de trazar un paisaje impresionista y espontáneo que la de hacer algo perentorio». Asimismo, consideraba que «si hubiese tenido un conocimiento más amplio lo más probable es que hubiese generado en mí cierto complejo de inferioridad y una humildad que habrían sido contraproducentes». El cóndor y las vacas catalogado por el autor como uno de sus mejores libros es el resultado de ese viaje. De inmediato se estableció como una crónica clásica, debido a la mordaz capacidad de observación del autor, que realiza el mejor homenaje a los sitios visitados al narrar sus experiencias sin idealizaciones ni sentimentalismos. Isherwood se maravilla ante la diversidad de un continente que cuenta con policías dedicados a prevenir suicidios al borde de un precipicio, donde cerdos y cabras descienden hacia una llanura en paracaídas, o en el que un golpe militar fracasa porque el presidente finge haber perdido el sello necesario para darle carácter oficial a su renuncia; pasa tiempo con figuras literarias como Victoria Ocampo o Jorge Luis Borges (de quien escribe: «Conoce la literatura inglesa clásica y moderna como muy pocos ingleses y americanos y es capaz de recitar párrafos enteros de los autores más inesperados, con comentarios de lo más divertidos y sutiles») y advierte señales premonitorias de los años violentos que desembocarán en dictaduras militares. A fin de cuentas, considera que es un continente de contrastes donde algo se está cocinando: «Y va a seguir cocinándose con el mismo misterio, el mismo ruido, la misma furia, a través de los tiempos que se acercan».
