Synopsis | Cameron, an elderly man with an artificial leg, has good reasons for not crossing certain precise boundaries of the city in which he lives. He spends his days contemplating the landscape, mountains, snow, a changing sky, and goes out for walks at night, sometimes to the pier, sometimes to the Jazz Club, sometimes to wander. One night, after a strange party and an early morning of which he remembers nothing, Cameron must take refuge in his neighbor Orsini's house, because the police are looking for him, although he does not know the reason. While he wonders what happened during the lost hours, the protagonist establishes a new relationship with his body and with the strange man who helps him. In this novel by Hernán Ronsino we find once again the Argentine region that the author has focused on mapping, one in which the past and the present are in permanent conflict, the stage in which individual identity and collective memory are played out. His narrative materials, volatile and enigmatic, sustain a tension that leads us through labyrinths of memory and perception toward the core of a mystery that reaches us to this day. |
