Larsen regresa a la ciudad de Santa María y se emplea en el astillero de Petrus al tiempo que comienza a cortejar a la hija de éste, con el único propósito de encontrar un sentido y atribuírselo a los años que le quedan por vivir y, por lo tanto, a toda su vida. Pronto la farsa se hace evidente, el astillero está irremediablemente en quiebra, solo es un espacio en ruinas, corroído por la depredación y el deterioro, y él es solo un difunto sin sepelio jugando a la hormiguita laboriosa, a quien fuera de esa farsa que aceptó como trabajo no le queda más que el frío del invierno, la vejez, el no tener dónde ir, la posibilidad de la muerte. Pero una cosa es jugar solo su propio juego y otra es que los demás lo acompañen, entonces el juego es lo serio, se transforma en lo real y aceptarlo es aceptar la locura. Paradigma literario de la desolación del hombre contemporáneo, esta obra maestra de la literatura en español del siglo xx condensa el mundo entero de Onetti: “su fascinación doble por la pureza y la corrupción, por la dulzura de los sueños y la herrumbre siniestra del desengaño y fracaso” (Antonio Muñoz Molina). “Lucidez ante la inutilidad de la vida, una idea casi vertiginosa de la muerte y esa otra luminosa poética de la incertidumbre y la relatividad que apunta tan directamente al corazón cartesiano de los relatos unívocos. No hay una próxima primavera para Larsen. Su alma, mezcla de los nihilistas de Roberto Arlt y Camus, dibuja ese paisaje devastado y carente de sentido intrínseco, que hubiera dicho Kant”. J. ERNESTO AYALA-DIP

Office-based writers from both sides of the River Plate chronicle the twentieth century. Martel's La bolsa (1891) initiates, and Dorfman's Reader (1995) concludes, a study of the white-collar citizens of Buenos Aires and Montevideo in their daytime habitat: the office. The literary background is the European literature of bureaucracy: Balzac, Galdós, Gogol, Dickens, Dostoyevsky, Kafka; the theoretical approach is through the sociologists Max Weber and C. Wright Mills; the historical context is the twentieth century: the decline of European power and the ascendency of the USA; two World Wars; the Wall Street crash; communism and fascism. Through the eyes of Arlt, Benedetti, Campodónico, Cortázar, De Castro, Denevi, Fernández, Marechal, Mariani, Martínez Estrada, Onetti and Ricci, we observe life on both sides of the River Plate, as the two countries succumb to polarisation, repression and, eventually, military dictatorship. This is the twentieth century, viewed by a bewildered, frequently anguished participant: the person at the next desk. PAUL R. JORDAN lectures in Hispanic Studies at the University of Sheffield.
