Autor Mario Bencastro
es Limba Spaniolă Paperback
ESPANOL: La mansion del olvido / Mario Bencastro Luego de sus triunfos internacionales logrados con Disparo en la catedral, Odisea del Norte y Paraiso portatil, Mario Bencastro nos entrega la novela epica La mansion del olvido. Armando, el protagonista, regresa a Ausolia despues de dos decadas de ausencia, con el objetivo de rescatar la memoria de su familia difunta cuyo paradero desconoce. La obra transcurre entre el reencuentro con lo familiar que yace doblemente sepultado: en el propio recuerdo y bajo la tierra. Ausolia es un pueblo conformado por dos comunidades: las familias acaudaladas que residen en las mansiones del centro y los habitantes de los barrios marginales. Dos ambitos con sus propias realidades, protagonistas y leyendas, unidos por una red de lazos consanguineos. "En la larga dimension de la historia del lugar (quinientos anos), la novela esboza el despojo de las tierras comunales indigenas, el paso del cultivo del anil al cafe, la matanza de 1932, el derecho de pernada de los hacendados, el militarismo, el despegue y el fin de la guerra civil, el exodo migratorio hacia el norte." "La mansion del olvido asume la tarea de develar el secreto de una cultura nacional cuyas raices se sustentan en el autoritarismo patriarcal... lo reinvierte en utopia social para el bienestar de sus conciudadanos y familiares, irreconocidos por su mismo padre. Tal es la escritura que Bencastro esculpe en la estela mitica de su nueva novela." -Rafael Lara-Martinez, "Premio Nacional de Cultura 2010," El Salvador. "La mansion del olvido es una epopeya nacional." -Nicolas Kanellos, Universidad de Houston, EEUU. www.MarioBencastro.org ENGLISH: La mansion del olvido by Mario Bencastro After being highly praised internationally for works like "A shot in the Cathedral," "Odyssey to the North" and "Portable Paradise," Mario Bencastro brings us the epic novel La mansion del olvido. Armando, the protagonist, returns to Ausolia after twenty years with the intention of rescuing the memory of his deceased family whose resting place he doesn't know. The novel transpires while Armando faces his past which is doubly buried - in his memory and underground. Ausolia is populated by two distinct communities: the rich families that live in the mansions at the center of the town and the inhabitants of the marginal barrios. Two worlds with their own realities, protagonists and legends, but connected by a complicated network of blood relations. "In the long historical dimension of the place (five hundred years), the novel outlines the spoliation of the land from the aboriginal, the changing of indigo cultivation to coffee, the indigenous massacre of 1932, the practice of droit du seigneur by landowners, the military regime, the start and the end of the civil war, the migratory exodus to the North." "The novel La mansion del olvido assumes the task of revealing the secret of a national culture whose roots rest on a patriarchal authority... and converts it into social utopia for the benefit of its inhabitants and families, ignored by their father. Such is the writing that Bencastro inscribes on the mythical stele of his new novel." -Rafael Lara-Martinez, "Culture National Prize 2010," El Salvador. "La mansion del olvido is a national epic." -Nicolas Kanellos, University of Houston, USA. www.MarioBencastro.org"
