El ritmo de Harlem
by Colson Whitehead«Un autor que roza la maestría [...]. Whitehead se ha convertido en uno de los mejores novelistas de Estados Unidos». Sam Sacks, The Wall Street Journal Ray Carner, hijo de un miembro de la mafia local y padre de familia modélico, regenta la tienda de muebles de la calle Ciento veinticinco, en Harlem. Ray intenta alejarse de la vida de delincuencia que su padre le mostró de niño, pero con un segundo hijo en camino necesita sacarse un dinero extra revendiendo artículos robados. Ahora, su primo Freddie le ofrece participar en algo más peligroso: el robo del famoso hotel Theresa, el Waldorf de Harlem. Policías corruptos, gángsters locales y pornógrafos pirómanos pasan a formar parte de su clientela habitual, y Ray tendrá que hacer equilibrios para mantener esta doble vida sin morir en el intento. El multipremiado Colson Whitehead regresa con una historia deslumbrante que recrea el paisaje criminal del Harlem de los años sesenta, un lugar que se convertirá en el centro de la lucha por los derechos civiles y donde la muerte de un adolescente negro abatido a tiros por la policía desencadenará los famosos disturbios de 1964. Una vez más, el autor pone de relieve las desigualdades y la discriminación racial de una época cuyos ecos aún resuenan en nuestro presente, en una novela criminal cargada de humor con la que consigue romper de nuevo las reglas del género negro. La crítica ha dicho:«Uno de los mejores escritores norteamericanos vivos».Mitchell S. Jackson, Time «Su escritura hace lo que la escritura debe hacer: actualiza nuestra percepción del mundo».John Updike, New Yorker «La novela clava las complejidades del pasado de Nueva York, desde las maravillas de la Feria Mundial hasta la desesperación de los disturbios en Harlem».Los Angeles Times«Whitehead pone a prueba su fuerza literaria, expandiendo los límites y las expectativas de la novela negra. Este libro es también un drama social que interroga la naturaleza de los prejuicios y cómo el entorno limita la ambición».The Guardian, Book of the Day «Gloriosamente entretenido [...] un drama social chispeante, que combina pinceladas de alta comedia con reflexiones sobre la esencia de la emancipación y el empoderamiento negros en Estados Unidos. Es poco probable que surja una novela mejor este año».The Evening Standard «La trama que (Whitehead) ha ideado para El ritmo de Harlem le ha ofrecido un nuevo motor narrativo de alta velocidad con el que jugar, pero también le ha dado una forma de explorar ideas sobre la naturaleza resbaladizade la moralidad, el poder (y quién lo posee) y las jerarquías sociales de subculturas criminales».The New York Times «Una apasionante novela de atracos ambientada en la era del Harlem de los derechos civiles. [...] Es una historia superlativa, pero el logro más impresionante es la representación amorosa que hace Whitehead del Harlem de los años 60, que aterriza de manera tan detallada y vívida como el Dublín de Joyce. No se sorprendan si esta novela le otorga a Whitehead otro premio importante».Publishers Weekly«Una novela emocionante y sabia».The Boston Globe
