The 3 best books of Gonzalo Suárez

Creativity ends up tracing winding paths in the case of a factotum like Gonzalo Suárez devoted to the cause through a lifetime of movies and books. A veteran of Gonzalo who forms a teaching profession in literature made his own genre; at the height of other greats who also reached majors such as Jose Luis Sampedro to do more than just a set of books.

One is wise when one manages to live to tell about it with the wrinkles of time. Everything else is empty pretensions, devoid of the necessary time where everything ferments.

Since the beginning of his narrative side, back in the XNUMXs, Gonzalo Suárez has been regularly quoting the role in which to develop his novels. Something like a polyamory between the scene and the story that always ends up bearing fruit in great synergies, in suggestive mixes from the communicating vessels through which his stories flow.

In Suárez's bibliography we find everything, from fictions of all kinds to his particular visions of cinema or literature as a subject in itself to be analyzed with that goal point, between transcendence or the mere understanding of the meaning and scope of fiction for the human being For which Gonzalo Suárez invites us to the most enriching incursions between fiction and reality.

Top 3 recommended books by Gonzalo Suárez

With the sky in tow

A work completely dedicated to the dreamlike. Waiting for some dreams to form scripts and plots worthy of being written before oblivion, this work achieves its part. Because you can dream and inhabit those dreams as if linked in déjá vù with the reality in charge of sublimating or suffocating them with its unsuspected alchemy of changing scenarios as we move.

On a rock that emerges from the sea, the appearance of a naked woman with the sex of a man will foreshadow the fate of Lorenzo Massaní when, from the south of France, he travels to a mythical Paris where Edith Piaf still sings and Albert Camus writes. But Paris is no longer Paris. A loving passion and an enigma of unforeseeable consequences will suffice for literature to gallop reality and take us, as in fairy tales, to a place where we have never been: the Paris of You Will Go and You Will Not Come Back. With the sky in tow, it travels through all imaginable genres, and the characters experience the extraordinary as normal because perhaps they know, like its author, that the normal is always extraordinary.

the blue graveyard

El cemetery azul is a rare opinion that flies over our everyday world to transport us, with the lucidity and sense of humor of one of the most respected creators on our cultural scene, to unexplored spaces.

The book begins on a frigid November in Warsaw, under the icy slashes of the wind in the neighborhood of Prague. Suddenly fiction bursts in and we find ourselves immersed in a succession of stories that pace time and, step by step, surreptitiously turn into an imaginary event to which reading gives life, what is literature if not a dream alternative to literature? reality?

The intrusive muse

A book where a series of autobiographical texts come together that make up a sort of portrait of the legendary filmmaker and writer, and a news, this time pure fiction, which offers us a rereading of Hamlet's tragedy in which the question hovers over whether the characters will be able to change their destinies, dictated hundreds of years ago.

"The victim always returns to the scene of the crime," says the author. But in The intrusive muse it is Suárez himself who returns to the scene of a murder where adultery and incest come together with the power of ambition, the desire for revenge and a love that survives death.

In this book, life and dreams, reflections and the most intimate memories, pass through autobiographical anecdotes, not without humor, before the most intrusive of the muses opens the doors of an immortal story.
