El Premio Pulitzer y autor bestseller, Cormac McCarthy regresa despuEs de 16 años. El autor de La carretera cuenta en dos volúmenes la historia de un hermano y una hermana, golpeados por pErdidas y conspiraciones. Dos novelas extraordinarias. Una obra maestra. El pasajero 1980, Mississippi. Son las tres de la madrugada cuando Bobby Western se sumerge en el mar del golfo de MExico con su traje de neopreno e ilumina el avión hundido con la linterna de buceo: nueve cuerpos con el cinturón de seguridad aún abrochado. Faltan la caja negra y el dEcimo pasajero. Pero ¿cómo es posible? Testigo colateral de maquinaciones que solo pueden perjudicarle, Bobby se ve ensombrecido en cuerpo y espíritu por hombres con placa, por el fantasma de su padre (uno de los inventores de la bomba de Hiroshima) y por su hermana, el amor y la ruina de su alma. El pasajero es una sobrecogedora novela sobre la moralidad y la ciencia, el legado del pecado y la locura que se aloja en la conciencia humana. Stella Maris 1972, Wisconsin. Alicia Western, de veinte años, ingresa en un hospital psiquiátrico llevando cuarenta mil dólares en una bolsa de plástico. Doctoranda en Matemáticas, a Alicia le han diagnosticado esquizofrenia paranoide y no quiere hablar de su hermano Bobby. Prefiere contemplar la naturaleza de la locura, estudiar la intersección entre la física y la filosofía, y plantar cohortes, quimeras y alucinaciones. Narrada a travEs de las transcripciones de las sesiones psiquiátricas, Stella Maris es un inquisitivo e intelectualmente desafiante complemento a El pasajero, así como una investigación filosófica que cuestiona nuestras nociones de Dios, la verdad y la existencia. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The best-selling, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Road returns with a two-volume masterpiece in an artfully designed box set. The Passenger is a fast-paced and sprawling novel while Stella Maris is a tightly controlled coda, told entirely in dialogue. Together they relate the thrilling story of a brother and sister, haunted by loss, pursued by conspiracy, and longing for a death they cannot reconcile with God. The Passenger 1980, PASS CHRISTIAN, MISSISSIPPI: It is three in the morning when Bobby Western, a salvage diver, zips the jacket of his wet suit and plunges from the boat deck into darkness. His dive light illuminates the sunken jet, nine bodies still buckled in their seats, hair floating, eyes devoid of speculation. Missing from the crash site are the pilot’s flight bag, the plane’s black box, and the tenth passenger. But how? A collateral witness to machinations that can only bring him harm, Western is shadowed in body and spirit—by men with badges; by the ghost of his father, inventor of the bomb that melted glass and flesh in Hiroshima; and by his sister, the love and ruin of his soul. Stella Maris 1972, BLACK RIVER FALLS, WISCONSIN: Alicia Western is twenty years old when she arrives at a psychiatric facility with forty thousand dollars in a plastic bag. A doctoral candidate in mathematics at the University of Chicago, Alicia has been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, and she does not want to talk about her brother, Bobby. Instead, she contemplates the nature of madness, the human insistence on one common experience of the world; she surveys the intersection of physics and philosophy; and she introduces her cohorts, her chimeras, the hallucinations that only she can see. All the while, she grieves for Bobby, not quite dead, not quite hers
