Oscurecida muchos años por el éxito de La Regenta, esta otra novela, Su único hijo, que Leopoldo Alas, ClarÃn, publica en 1891, ha ido obteniendo en los últimos tiempos un reconocimiento cada vez más positivo que la ha aproximado en estimación a aquella obra universal. Su tema central -la insegura paternidad de un niño- sirve de trama al autor para tejer un magistral discurso novelÃstico sobre la ambigüedad de todo cuanto existe. Superando la posición fija del narrador tradicional, y en la lÃnea de la mejor novela europea de la época, ClarÃn cambia aquà constantemente el punto de vista y proyecta sobre la vida una mirada irónica que, al tiempo que la ilumina, la hace problemática. I loved Alas' 'La Regenta', and this is almost as brilliant, his characterization of complex, tragic, sometimes hilarious personalities creates a compelling storyline. Emma is a disconsolate wife; married to a weak, utterly dependant - albeit nice looking- husband, she has become a harpie ("he was Desdemona, his wife Othello- she certainly had the temper for it"). Violent, abusive, disparaging , her husband's only value to her is in his nursemaiding skills for her largely imaginary complaints, as he must be ever on hand to perform sundry unpleasant tasks of care-giving. The reader hardly blames him for taking up with a lovely singer; soon he is misappropriating his wife's fortune to pay off the girl's manager/ pimp/ sometime-lover... As his wife's all-seeing uncle (and head of the family finances), Nepomuceno, realises what is happening...as the invalid wife suddenly, miraculously, starts to regain her youthful vitality...a lot happens, and this reader couldn't put it down. Fabulous writing! How can Alas not be better known? 150% recommended! Los Varcárcel es una familia rica de un pueblo o ciudad de provincia. Adinerada por los negocios del padre de Emma, pero este muere y deja como única heredera a su hija, toda la fortuna se encargo de administrarla el tÃo de Emma D. Nepomuceno,(que mas adelante les acabará arruinando) Emma, al ser la tÃpica mimada niña de papá se enamoró de un antiguo escribano de su padre que ahora está arruinado, era Bonis o Bonifacio, Emma y Bonis se acabaron casando y juntos vivaran todo lo posible menos la felicidad y el bienestar, y todo por culpa de la estúpida de su mujer. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
