Vuelve la Premio Nobel con una novela total sobre las andanzas de Jacob Frank, que se autoproclamó Mesías en pleno Siglo de las Luces. Jacob Frank, el protagonista de esta novela, parece por sus peripecias un personaje ficticio que solo la mente de una novelista podría concebir. Sin embargo, resulta que existió, y su vida está históricamente documentada. La Premio Nobel Olga Tokarczuk parte de las andanzas de este personaje real para construir una novela impetuosa, deslumbrante. En la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII, el joven judío Jacob Frank se reinventó una y otra vez; recorrió dos imperios, el de los Habsburgo y el Otomano; profesó tres religiones; se autoproclamó Mesías; soliviantó a las autoridades; reunió discípulos y creó una secta que abogaba por romper tabúes y practicaba, según algunos rumores, ritos orgiásticos y bacanales; buscó la trascendencia espiritual en pleno Siglo de las Luces; cuestionó el orden establecido y fue perseguido y acusado de hereje... Con este personaje real casi inverosímil –carismático, loco, subversivo, iconoclasta–, la autora construye una novela épica, histórica, satírica y filosófica que recorre Europa hasta sus confines, desde las aldeas campesinas hasta las sofisticadas cortes. Con una prosa exquisita y un ritmo que no da tregua, Tokarczuk atrapa al lector en sus garras y no lo suelta. Una novela total, que reconstruye una historia poco conocida de nuestro pasado para abordar literariamente los grandes temas de nuestro presente.

A NEW YORKER “ESSENTIAL READ” “Just as awe-inspiring as the Nobel judges claimed.” – The Washington Post “Olga Tokarczuk is one of our greatest living fiction writers. . . This could well be a decade-defining book akin to Bolaño’s 2666.” –AV Club “Sophisticated and ribald and brimming with folk wit. . . The comedy in this novel blends, as it does in life, with genuine tragedy.” –Dwight Garner, The New York Times LONGLISTED FOR THE 2022 NATIONAL BOOK AWARD NAMED A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR BY THE NEW YORK TIMES, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, TIME, THE NEW YORKER, AND NPR The Nobel Prize–winner’s richest, most sweeping and ambitious novel yet follows the comet-like rise and fall of a mysterious, messianic religious leader as he blazes his way across eighteenth-century Europe. In the mid-eighteenth century, as new ideas—and a new unrest—begin to sweep the Continent, a young Jew of mysterious origins arrives in a village in Poland. Before long, he has changed not only his name but his persona; visited by what seem to be ecstatic experiences, Jacob Frank casts a charismatic spell that attracts an increasingly fervent following. In the decade to come, Frank will traverse the Hapsburg and Ottoman empires with throngs of disciples in his thrall as he reinvents himself again and again, converts to Islam and then Catholicism, is pilloried as a heretic and revered as the Messiah, and wreaks havoc on the conventional order, Jewish and Christian alike, with scandalous rumors of his sect’s secret rituals and the spread of his increasingly iconoclastic beliefs. The story of Frank—a real historical figure around whom mystery and controversy swirl to this day—is the perfect canvas for the genius and unparalleled reach of Olga Tokarczuk. Narrated through the perspectives of his contemporaries—those who revere him, those who revile him, the friend who betrays him, the lone woman who sees him for what he is—The Books of Jacob captures a world on the cusp of precipitous change, searching for certainty and longing for transcendence. In a nod to books written in Hebrew, The Books of Jacob is paginated in reverse, beginning on p. 955 and ending on p. 1 – but read traditionally, front cover to back.

Jacob es un muchacho judío, dulce y alegre, en la Argelia colonial francesa de los años 40. Educado y sensible en un mundo de hombres duros, coléricos e ignorantes, es reclutado en junio de 1944 para liberar a Francia. Los suyos lo ignoran todo de la guerra en la que va a participar. Esa gente modesta, pobre y tosca aguarda con impaciencia el regreso de su hijo pródigo, su orgullo, un valiente y un héroe. Pero también ignoran que pronto los acontecimientos históricos se precipitarán provocando el propio destierro de toda la familia. La escritura luminosa de Valérie Zenatti, su vitalidad y la empatía que muestra con sus personajes le confieren especial densidad y fuerza a la novela.

WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE WINNER OF THE MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST FOR TRANSLATED LITERATURE A visionary work of fiction by "A writer on the level of W. G. Sebald" (Annie Proulx) "A magnificent writer." — Svetlana Alexievich, Nobel Prize-winning author of Secondhand Time "A beautifully fragmented look at man's longing for permanence.... Ambitious and complex." — Washington Post From the incomparably original Polish writer Olga Tokarczuk, Flights interweaves reflections on travel with an in-depth exploration of the human body, broaching life, death, motion, and migration. Chopin's heart is carried back to Warsaw in secret by his adoring sister. A woman must return to her native Poland in order to poison her terminally ill high school sweetheart, and a young man slowly descends into madness when his wife and child mysteriously vanish during a vacation and just as suddenly reappear. Through these brilliantly imagined characters and stories, interwoven with haunting, playful, and revelatory meditations, Flights explores what it means to be a traveler, a wanderer, a body in motion not only through space but through time. Where are you from? Where are you coming in from? Where are you going? we call to the traveler. Enchanting, unsettling, and wholly original, Flights is a master storyteller's answer.

Until a crucial piece of evidence turns up linking Jacob to the murder. And suddenly Andy and his wife find their son accused of being a cold-blooded killer.
