Par Andrea Camilleri. 2004
Seis irresistibles narraciones nos devuelven el universo del comisario Montalbano en toda su riqueza y esplendor, para deleite de los…
lectores adictos a su particular manera de entender la vida. A plena luz del despiadado sol siciliano, con un humor no exento del realismo más implacable, surge un caudal de sentimientos irrefrenables: el odio que provoca una venganza cuyas consecuencias han de durar décadas en Mejor la oscuridad; o los resquemores que despierta en todo el cuerpo de policía de Vigàta el comportamiento aparentemente ingenuo, pero cargado de miradas salvajes, de la joven Grazia Giangrasso, en Herido de muerte. Y para arropar al comisario en su ardua tarea, no faltan los elementos de siempre: los desencuentros telefónicos con su novia Livia, las entrañables broncas con Mimì Augello, la perplejidad que siempre consigue producirle Catarella, el inefable telefonista de la comisaría. En esta ocasión, a los personajes conocidos se añaden otros nuevos, como el formal y distante comandante Verruso, antítesis de un Montalbano que descubrirá, con sorpresa y admiración, la dignidad y valentía con las que su nuevo aliado custodia un terrible secreto. Como es habitual en él, Montalbano aprovecha la resolución de los casos para exponer el contraluz de las cosas, de los acontecimientos y circunstancias que rodean los hechos, como si éstos fueran consecuencia de una condición colectiva, de otros dramas y otros padecimientos largamente sufridos, que escapan al control del individuo. Y todas esas dudas, miedos, tentaciones y contradicciones no hacen más que subrayar, si cabe, la profunda dimensión humana que ha hecho de este personaje el favorito de millones de lectores en todo el mundo. La crítica ha dicho...«Algunos de los cuentos más interesantes y divertidos del comisario Montalbano.»Messagero Veneto «Hay autores cuyos libros suscitan admiración, sorpresa, emoción; los de Andrea Camilleri suscitan todo eso [...].»ABC Cultural«Camilleri ha demostrado que se puede conciliar armoniosamente lo serio con lo humorístico, lo grave y lo ligero, con comprensión hacia las debilidades humanas.»BabeliaTheir Surprise Island Wedding: A Clean and Uplifting Romance (Hawaiian Reunions #2)
