«Matar no es tan extremo ni tan difícil e injusto si se sabe a quién.»
Tras la aclamada Berta Isla, llega la nueva y esperada novela de Javier Marías. Una intriga absorbente que explora el envés del «No matarás».
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The final novel from Spain's most acclaimed writer, a novel about a charismatic half-Spanish, half-English man who is recruited by British intelligence "Javier Marías's best work." --El País After his acclaimed Berta Isla, comes Javier Marías' long-awaited new novel. It is a mesmerizing intrigue that explores the underside of "Thou shalt not kill." Two men, one in fiction and one in reality, had the opportunity to kill Hitler before he unleashed World War II. Based on this fact, Javier Marías explores the basis of "You shalt not kill." As its narrator put it, "you can see that killing is not so extreme or so difficult and unfair depending on who your target is." Tomas Nevinson, Berta Isla's husband, falls into the temptation of returning to the Secret Services. In 1997, after having been away for a while, he was assigned to go to a northwestern city in search of a suspect who participated in attacks made by the IRA and ETA ten years before. The novel is a deep reflection on the limits and restraints of what can be done, on the stain that comes with avoiding the greatest evil, and on the struggle of determining what that evil is. Against the background of historical terrorist attacks, Tomas Nevinson is also the story of what happens to someone who has already had everything happen to him, and to whom, apparently, nothing else could happen.
