Synopsis "Respiracion Artificial (in Spanish)"

Respiración artificial es una crónica argentina de varias generaciones que se retrotrae de 1979 a 1850. Emilio Renzi, un joven escritor, entabla correspondencia con su tío Marcelo Maggi, a quien conocía solamente por los escandalosos relatos familiares. Pero en las cartas descubrirá su faceta de investigador de Enrique Ossorio, un conspirador doble de la época del gobernador Rosas, y sus esfuerzos por desvelar la historia secreta de la estirpe y de la nación bajo la sombra de una nueva dictadura.

Respiración artificial se considera la novela de culto de Ricardo Piglia, una obra que lo reafirma como uno de los grandes de la narrativa latinoamericana contemporánea.

La crítica ha dicho…

«Ricardo Piglia ha heredado la desconfiada inteligencia de Borges, su incansable y gozosa exploración de la literatura y su atracción por los oscuros bajos fondos. Las ficciones de Piglia son inventivas parábolas sobre las pesadillas recientes y pasadas de la historia de su país».
The Independent

«Piglia es capaz de unificar registros, mantener la intriga al tiempo que construye extravagantes personajes y lanza teorías literarias o históricas desde la lucidez y la inteligencia».
Joaquín Marco, El Cultural, El Mundo

«Respiración artificial, de 1980, el libro que lo transformó en un clásico».
Leila Guerreiro, Babelia, El País

«Piglia es uno de los autores más prestigiosos del panorama actual, gracias a títulos como Respiración artificial, Plata quemada y Blanco nocturno».
Winston Manrique Sabotal, Babelia, El País

Ricardo Piglia (Adrogué, 1941-Buenos Aires, 2017) is unanimously considered a classic of current Spanish-language literature. He published his five novels at Anagrama: Artificial Respiration, The Absent City, Burnt Money (adapted into film by Marcelo Piñeyro; Planeta Prize Argentina), Nocturnal Target (Critics' Prize, Rómulo Gallegos Prize, International Dashiell Hammett Novel Prize, and José María Arguedas Casa de las Américas Narrative Prize) and The Path of Ida; the stories of The Invasion, False Name, Perpetual Prison and The Cases of Commissioner Croce; and the texts of Brief Forms (Bartolomé March Critic's Prize), Criticism and Fiction, The Last Reader, and Personal Anthology, which can be read as the first essays and attempts at a future autobiography, which crystallizes in The Diaries of Emilio Renzi, divided into three volumes. Piglia was also awarded the Grand Prize of Honor of the Argentine Writers Society, the José Donoso, the Ibero-American Narrative Manuel Rojas, the Konex, and the Formentor de las Letras. The critical reception of this author in Spain was truly exceptional: "Spectacular landing" (Ignacio Echevarría, El País); "One of the most lucid minds in the current Latin Hispanic American scene, not only Argentine" (Joaquín Marco, El Mundo); "There are few necessary writers who are demonstrating, today, the vitality of their intellectual proposals" (Jordi Carrión, Avui); "Ricardo Piglia, the classic rebel" (J. A. Masoliver Ródenas, La Vanguardia)
