Synopsis "Las Vírgenes Suicidas (in Spanish)"

Una aproximacion a la nebulosa de la adolescencia a traves de la personalidad enigmatica de las hermanas Lisbon. En menos de un año y medio, las cinco hermanas Lisbon, adolescentes de entre trece y diecisiete años, se suicidaron.Los jovencitos del barrio habian estado siempre fascinados por esas inalcanzables jovenes en flor, atraidos por esa casa de densa feminidad enclaustrada la madre era una catolica ferviente y moralista que no dejaba que sus hijas salieran con chicos; el padre, profesor de matematicas docil y benevolo, aceptaba las muy estrictas normas de su mujer, y las primeras muertes no hicieron sino ahondar el misterio y el espesor del deseo. Los Lisbon se encerraron cada vez mas en si mismos y en el interior de la casa, y los jovenes los espiaban desde las ventanas del vecindario, trataban de comunicarse con las hermanas pidiendoles canciones por telefono, contribuian al intrincado tejido de rumores, a la creacion de mitologias. Veinte años despues, esos mismos adolescentes, ya en la frontera de la mediana edad, intentan desentrañar el enigma de aquellas lolitas muertas que siguen fascinandolos.

Jeffrey Eugenides (Detroit, 1960) studied at Brown and Stanford universities. He is the author of three acclaimed novels, all published by Anagrama: The Virgin Suicides, adapted into a film by Sofia Coppola: "Extraordinary novel, the Lisbon sisters are to the literature of the nineties what Holden Caulfield from The Catcher in the Rye was to the fifties" (Sergi Sánchez, El Mundo); Middlesex, which won the 2003 Pulitzer and was considered one of the best novels of recent decades: "Outstanding, very powerful" (Antonio Fontana, ABC); "Magnificent family saga, a dazzling novel" (Ignacio Martínez de Pisón); "Colossal" (David Guzmán, La Razón); and The Marriage Plot: "Fine and empathetic... Eugenides returns to claim his place among the master craftsmen of the (great) (American) novel" (Rubén Pujol, Rockdelux); "A luminous meditation on the distance between literature and life" (Eduardo Lago, El País).
