Synopsis "El Corazon del Tartaro (in Spanish)"

Acosada por una voz al teléfono que le dice ?Te he encontrado?, Zarza inicia una huida de su propio pasado: durante 24 horas recorrerá todos los círculos del Infierno, desde el que se sitúa en los bajos fondos y el mundo de la droga hasta el de su propia infancia ?tristemente? recuperada. El relato medieval en el que trabaja como editora, El caballero de la Rosa , es el contrapunto a esta historia de perdición y esperanza, que, como una tela de araña, acabará envolviendo a la protagonista de la historia paso a paso como quien ajusta las piezas de un rompecabezas, hasta que al final estalle, cegadora, la revelación final que cambiará la vida de Zarza para siempre.Basada en la obra del mismo título, esta novela gráfica dibujada por Rafa Álvarez recrea el mismo ambiente de relato alucinado e intriga in crescendo que le valió a Rosa Montero el reconocimiento de la crítica y del público en el momento de la publicación de la novela en 2001. Nº de páginas: 143 págs. Editorial: FUNAMBULISTA Lengua: ESPAÑOL Encuadernación: Tapa blanda ISBN: 9788496601444 Año edicón: 2008 Plaza de edición: MADRID

Rosa Montero (Madrid, January 3, 1951) is a Spanish writer and journalist known for her deep exploration of human psychology, memory, and the passage of time, captured in a sensitive and approachable narrative. She studied Psychology and Journalism at the Complutense University of Madrid and began her literary career with the novel Crónica del desamor in 1979. Since then, she has established her voice in contemporary literature with works that combine fiction, social analysis, and personal reflection. Among her most notable titles are La hija del caníbal (Primavera Novel Award 1997), La loca de la casa (Qué Leer Award 2003 and Grinzane Cavour in Italy 2004), Historia del Rey Transparente (Qué Leer Award 2006), La ridícula idea de no volver a verte and La buena suerte, as well as El peligro de estar cuerda.

Montero has received numerous accolades throughout her career, including the National Journalism Award (1980), the National Award of Spanish Letters (2017) for her literary career, and international distinctions such as the Officière des Arts et des Lettres decoration awarded by the French Republic in 2024. Her work has been translated into more than twenty languages and adapted to film, theater, and opera. In addition to her literary work, she has worked as a journalist for El País since 1977, where she was editor-in-chief of its Sunday supplement. She currently resides in Madrid and remains active in writing, teaching, and participating in cultural conferences and symposiums internationally.
