La nueva novela de uno de los autores de mayor ?xito en Chile relata un episodio capital del fin de la Guerra Fr?a.
«Ya nadie recuerda que, durante un a?o y medio, hasta su muerte, el padre del siniestro Muro de Berl?n se pase? tranquilo por las calles de Santiago .
Despu?s de la ca?da del Muro y la disoluci?n de la Rep?blica Democr?tica Alemana, Erich Honecker encuentra refugio en Santiago de Chile, donde regatea con la muerte y el juicio de la historia. Patricio Dupr?, chileno y ex refugiado en Alemania Oriental, se ve envuelto en una trama estremecedora al conseguir un trabajo como traductor del l?der del r?gimen que socav? sus sue?os juveniles cuando estudiaba Filosof?a en la Karl-Marx-Universit?t de Leipzig. En eso est? cuando se reencuentra con Valentina Bode, su antiguo amor de juventud, joven de la cual fue separado por el Muro. Han pasado los a?os, ella no es ya la misma y esconde oscuros secretos vinculados al Partido Socialista Unificado germano, los cuales motivan su viaje al fin del mundo. Roberto Ampuero narra a tres voces: la de Honecker, Dupr? y Bode. Contrapone sus visiones y desentra?a la madeja de un amor v?ctima de las intrigas internacionales. Nunca volver? a Berl?n se revela como una novela de esp?as y de un amor imposible y, sobre todo, como testimonio profundamente humano sobre una ?poca que sigue generando debate. La Guerra Fr?a ha terminado y el autor nos adentra en los ?ltimos meses de vida del secretario general del PSUA en su aislado refugio chileno, donde convergen sue?os, frustraciones y secretos. La narrativa cautivadora, enriquecida por la experiencia en los socialismos reales, captura los suspiros finales de una era y las disyuntivas que atormentan el coraz?n humano. Con Nunca volver? a Berl?n, Roberto Ampuero vuelve a su mejor registro y ofrece a los lectores una obra sobre pasiones y pol?tica que perdurar? en la memoria. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The latest novel by one of the most successful Chilean authors relates a capital episode of the end of the Cold War.
"Nobody remembers that, for a year and a half, up to his death, the father of the grim Berlin Wall strolled peacefully through the streets of Santiago."
After the Wall fell and the German Democratic Republic dissolved, Erich Honecker found refuge in Santiago de Chile, where he haggled with death and the judgement of history. Patricio Dupr?, Chilean and former refugee in East Germany, becomes tangled in a harrowing plot when he lands a job as translator for the very leader of the regime that crumbled the dreams of his youth, studying Philosophy at the Karl-Marx-Universit?t, in Leipzig. That's when he is reunited with Valentina Bode, his young love, from whom he was separated by the Wall. Years have gone by, she is no longer the same and is hiding dark secrets associated with the German Socialist Unity Party, which cause her to travel to the world's end. Roberto Ampuero writes in three voices: Honecker's, Dupr?'s, and Bode's. He contrasts their points of view and untangles the skein of a love that fell victim to international intrigue. I Will Never Return to Berlin reveals itself as a spy novel and an impossible love story, but above all, as a profoundly human testimony about a time still open for debate. The Cold War is over, and the author takes us to those last few months in the life of the Secretary General of the SUP, at his secluded Chilean refuge, where dreams, frustrations, and secrets converge. The captivating narrative, enriched by the experiences of real socialism, capture the final breath of an era and the dilemmas that torment the human heart.
With I Will Never Return to Berlin, Roberto Ampuero turns to his best form and offers his readers a novel about passion and politics that will be remembered.
