Reseña del libro "Yo Por Dentro"
De madrugada, echado en la cama, debatiendose entre el sueno y la vigilia, un hombre solitario medita, evoca escenas y ajusta cuentas con el pasado. Por su cabeza merodean recuerdos, en ocasiones fugaces, de su juventud, de su carrera como actor, de la relacion compleja con su padre y del papel de las mujeres en su vida. La figura paterna aparece de modo recurrente en muchos de esos episodios lejanos: ese padre que formo parte de la tripulacion de un bombardero en la Segunda Guerra Mundial, ese padre que tenia una novia muy joven, Felicity, con la que tambien el mantuvo una relacion, formando un triangulo que acabaria desembocando en tragedia... Una novela crepuscular y elusiva en la que se filtran pinceladas autobiograficas, un testamento literario por todo lo alto, que viene ademas precedido por un bellisimo prologo de Patti Smith. / This searing, extraordinarily evocative narrative opens with a man in his house at dawn, surrounded by aspens, coyotes cackling in the distance as he quietly navigates the distance between present and past. As memory overtakes him, he sees the bygone America of his childhood: the farmland and the feedlots, the railyards and the dinersand, most hauntingly, his fathers young girlfriend, with whom he also became involved, setting into motion a tragedy that has stayed with him. His complex interiority is filtered through views of mountains and deserts as he drives across the country, propelled by Benzedrine, rock and roll, and a restlessness born out of exile. The rhythms of theater, the language of poetry, and a flinty humor combine in this stunning meditation on the nature of experience, at once celebratory, surreal, poignant, and unforgettable.
