“I read Unai Elorriaga’s latest novel almost without stopping to breathe. Breathlessly, yes, but not quickly, because Elorriaga’s books are not the kind you read in two or three hours and put back on the shelf. It is a very good novel. Incredibly good.”—Gorka Bereziartua Plants Don't Drink Coffee achieves a graceful balance between playfulness (in both language and character) and depth of emotion and thought. Unai Elorriaga gives voice to unassuming characters, to “small” people with “small” lives; he magnifies things that often go unnoticed. Four stories narrated from different perspectives crisscross throughout the novel. In the first-person, the young Tomas — who wants above all else to be intelligent — tells us why it is so important for him to catch a blue dragonfly and introduces his extended (and eccentric) family to us one by one. We observe the surrealist creation of a rugby field on a golf course, unravel the mystery of why a couple of forty years never married, and delve into the intrigue surrounding a European carpentry competition that Tomas’ grandfather had taken part in. Vredaman is teaming with dreamers, free spirits, and nonconformists who follow their inner voices. Beneath the novel’s lighthearted and balletic ways lies a gentle wisdom, a lucid vision of human emotion. Unai Elorriaga’s first novel, A Streetcar to SP,won Spain’s prestigious National Narrative Prize in 2002. The jury was taken by the freshness of his voice and by how utterly unique the book was. Elorriaga is the most celebrated young Basque author in the Spanish literary landscape. Although influenced by Julio Cortázar and Juan Rulfo, Elorriaga stands alone in both the inventiveness of his narrative and in the particular way his characters reveal their humanity. Elorriaga is truly breaking new ground. Amaia Gabantxo is a literary translator, writer, and reviewer. Her work has appeared in many journals and newspapers, including TheTimes Literary Supplement and The Independent, as well as in An Anthology of Basque Short Stories and Spain: A Traveler’s Literary Companion (Whereabouts Press). Her translation of Anjel Lertxundi’s Perfect Happiness is forthcoming

Lucas, el anciano viajero que sueña con alcanzar las cumbres más altas del Himalaya a pesar de la fragilidad de su mente. Marcos, un músico que busca su lugar en el mundo y encuentra el amor de Roma. Y María, la hermana de Lucas, escritora anónima en busca del instante feliz que da sentido a la vida. Esta novela es también el lugar de encuentro entre la juventud y la vejez, un espacio lleno de humor, ternura, sabiduría y asombro, una manera de contar, directa y cristalina, el nacimiento del amor, el avance de la enfermedad, la práctica de la convivencia y el valor de la buena compañía. Y además, una exploración sutil y directa de las ilusiones y los deseos, no sólo de los personajes, sino los del propio lector también. Lo que la crítica ha dicho de Un tranvía en SP: «Continuamente se escucha la música alegre y pícara, un ritmo excitante, audaz, que te hace sentir un temblor de satisfacción.» José Luis Padrón, Pérgola «Una historia maravillosa. En cada párrafo hay mucho que disfrutar, que paladear, que leer una y otra vez.» Lutxos Egia, Deia «El libro de Elorriaga no tiene antídoto. Conviene arriesgarse o renunciar a tiempo.» Rosa Aneiros, La Voz de Galicia «He dejado las últimas páginas para leerlas en un sitio tranquilo. Y tanta historia para que al final, en lugar del llanto me aflorara una incontenible sonrisa. Se lo tengo que agradecer a Unai Elorriaga.» Amagoia Iban, Egunkaria «Ha sido una sorpresa impresionante. Una gozada. El libro es un estallido continuo, una serie de pequeñas explosiones: una enorme cantidad de imágenes e ideas. Hay que subrayar la poesía que emana de muchos de sus párrafos, el amor que se vislumbra alrededor de los personajes… Unai Elorriaga dará que hablar.» Alberto Barandiaran, Nabarra

СЛУЧАЙНАЯ КНИГА

Богът на дребните неща

Този следобед Аму сънува, че се носи нагоре, че весел еднорък мъж я притиска до себе си в светлината на газена лампа. Той нямаше друга ръка, с която да прогонва сенките по пода около него. Сенки, които само той виждаше. Коремните мускули се издигаха под кожата му като квадратчетата на шоколад. Държеше я близо до себе си в светлината на газената лампа и тялото му лъщеше като излъскано с во...
