by Manuel Rivas (Author)
«En el medioambiente de la orilla. Al borde del acantilado. Donde las palabras todavía quieren decir y no dominar, como seres de una naturaleza salvaje, donde la vida tiembla de miedo, asombro o risa. Ahí es donde escribo .
La tierra oculta reúne obras de Manuel Rivas que tienen en común la condición de literatura de la naturaleza, un manuscrito de la tierra, entendido como espacio real y simbólico de emergencia, abandono, crisis y lucha contra la extinción.
Este volumen incluye libros fundamentales de Rivas --Un millón de vacas, galardonado con el Premio de la Crítica española, Los comedores de patatas, y En salvaje compañía, Premio de la Crítica gallega-- en una nueva edición revisada por el autor, e incluye también una antología de relatos titulada Los habitantes de la
dificultad. Todos ellos proponen una mirada al universo rural alejada del costumbrismo y pueden leerse como metáfora del mundo en que vivimos. Una literatura en la que todo habla, personas humanas y no humanas, y en la que la imaginación es una llave para adentrarse en la zona de sombra de la realidad.
The Hidden Land collects the works of Manuel Rivas that have in common a natural literary condition, being a manuscript of soil, understood as a real and symbolic space of emergency, abandonment, crisis, and a battle against extinction. This volume includes Rivas' essential works (One Million Cows, recipient of the Spanish Critics Award; The Potato Eaters, and In Wild Company, recipient of the Galician Critics Award) in a new edition, revised by the author. It also contains an anthology of short stories entitled The Inhabitants of Difficulty. All which suggest a look into the rural universe away from regionalism, and can be read as a metaphor for the world we live in. This is a literature in which everything has a voice, human and non-human, and in which imagination is key to walk into the shaded area of reality. The narrative in The Hidden Land is anticipatory, upwind, with a stamp of humor and irony that portrays injustice or communicates helplessness. A "path of fireflies" trying to unveil what is frowned upon. Because it is unknown or because it disturbs. A work of de-extinction.
