Publisher's Synopsis

Los años cincuenta retratados por Richard Yates tienen demasiados parentescos con los tiempos que vivimos. El aislamiento que nace de la comodidad. La pérdida, muchas veces inconsciente, de valores que en algún momento parecìan fundamentales. Brillantes, bellos y confundidos, Frank y April Wheeler tratan de sostener sus ideas incluso contra sì mismos y sus debilidades.
«Si se necesita algo más para realizar una obra maestra, no sé de qué se trata.» Tennesse Williams

«Si Vìa Revolucionaria no convierte a Yates en un escritor inmortal, la inmortalidad es algo que no vale la pena.» Time
«Una Madame Bovary habitando los pesadillescos suburbios del American Dream. Pocos libros tan tristes hicieron tan felices a sus lectores: obra maestra.» El Paìs

ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONIn the hopeful 1950s, Frank and April Wheeler appear to be a model couple: bright, beautiful, talented, with two young children and a starter home in the suburbs. Perhaps they married too young and started a family too early. Maybe Frank's job is dull. And April never saw herself as a housewife. Yet they have always lived on the assumption that greatness is only just around the corner. But now that certainty is about to crumble.

With heartbreaking compassion and remorseless clarity, Richard Yates shows how Frank and April mortgage their spiritual birthright, betraying not only each other, but their best selves.
