Los mejores textos de Arturo Pérez-Reverte sobre su gran pasión: el mar
Los barcos se pierden en tierra ofrece no solo un insólito goce náutico sino una aproximación iluminadora a la personalidad y el mundo del escritor a través de la que quizá sea la mayor de sus pasiones. «El mar restalla en las cuartillas que tengo sobre la mesa y que el viento agita blancas como penachos de espuma. Son las páginas de Los barcos se pierden en tierra, este libro que recoge textos y artículos de Arturo Pérez-Reverte sobre mares y marinos, varios de ellos bien conocidos de los que le seguimos, otros inéditos. La mayoría procedentes de ese espacio tan refrescante y contumaz que es su colaboración en el XL Semanal, "Patente de corso". Ahora todos juntos componen una poderosa y homogénea escuadra que ofrece no solo un insólito goce náutico sino una aproximación iluminadora a la personalidad y el mundo del escritor a través de la que quizá sea la mayor de sus pasiones. En esta gozosa travesía encuadernada hay pasajes de un conmovedor lirismo, como el relato de la primera vez que el autor observó una ballena; episodios de gran ternura, como el de su hija nadando entre delfines; melancólicas estampas de puertos; o, en el otro extremo, están los textos hilarantes del Pérez-Reverte iconoclasta, gamberro y cachondo. Las bromas a costa del brazo de Nelson, las diatribas contra los ingleses o los domingueros del mar, las motos de agua y los pijoyates. «Pasen la página y disfruten de cómo sopla el viento en las jarcias, bajo las estrellas. --Jacinto Antón ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Arturo Pérez-Reverte's best work about his great passion, the sea. Ships Are Lost Ashore offers not only an extraordinary nautical pleasure, but an enlightening approximation to the author's character and personal world by way of what might as well be his greatest passion. "The sea breaks within the pages I keep on my table, which the wind stirs up white, as foam headdresses. They belong to Ships Are Lost Ashore, this book, containing Arturo Pérez-Reverte's essays and articles on seas and seamen, some of them well-known by those of us who follow him, others unpublished. Most of them surge from that refreshing and contumacious space we find in his XL Semanal collaboration, 'Patente de corso'. Together, they compose a powerful and uniform fleet, offering not only an extraordinary nautical pleasure, but an enlightening approximation to the author's character and personal world by way of what might as well be his greatest passion. "In this blissfulbound voyage, we find landscapes of overwhelming lyricism, like in his tale of the first time he saw a whale; episodes of great tenderness, like her daughter swimming among dolphins; melancholy port stamps, or hilarious pieces from the iconoclast funny trouble-maker Pérez-Reverte. Jokes at the expense of Nelson's arm, rants against the British or Sunday sailors, jet skis, and fancy yachts. "Turn the page and enjoy the wind blowing through the rigging, under the stars," Jacinto Antón.Author Biography
