LEARN MORE Summary

Esta brillante novela es el segundo volumen de la publicación de la obra completa de Canetti, una edición definitiva dirigida por Juan José del Solar.

A través de la historia de Peter Kien, un especialista en China internacionalmente conocido, propietario de una biblioteca de 25.000 volúmenes de la que se ocupa él mismo, Canetti habla de los peligros de considerar que un intelectualismo rígido y dogmático, encerrado en sí mismo, pueda prevalecer sobre el mal, el caos y la destrucción.

Así, el protagonista de Auto de fe, después de soñar que sus libros eran quedamos, se casa con su asistenta, Teresa, una mujer iletrada y embrutecida, que habrá de ayudarle en la tarea de preservar su biblioteca. Pero Teresa le echa de su casa y Kien, convertido en un mendigo, vaga por el submundo de la ciudad, con su espíritu fluctuando entre horribles alucinaciones y una realidad inenarrable.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A modernist novel about a man's obsessive love of books—and disdain for humanity—from the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature.

Auto-da-Fé, Elias Canetti's only work of fiction, is a staggering achievement that puts him squarely in the ranks of major European writers such as Robert Musil and Hermann Broch.

It is the story of Peter Kien, a scholarly recluse who lives among and for his great library. The destruction of Kien through the instrument of the illiterate, brutish housekeeper he marries constitutes the plot of the book. The best writers of our time have been concerned with the horror of the modern world—one thinks of Kafka, to whom Canetti has often been compared. But Auto-da-Fé stands as a completely original, unforgettable treatment of the modern predicament.
