Add to basket«Una novela epistolar que bebe de Conrad y de Saint-Exupéry sin imitar a ninguno de los dos. Voz propia, océano propio».
Le Télégramme
Galardonado con el Prix des Écrivains Bretons y el Prix Albatros.
En el verano de 1988, en un muelle de Les Sables-d'Olonne, un viejo marino y un muchacho se cruzan en silencio. Cornelius Öhrn lleva más de medio siglo navegando solo; Alix todavía no sabe si tendrá el valor de partir. De ese encuentro fugaz nacen diecinueve cartas que cambiarán la vida de ambos.
Cornelius es el último superviviente del submarino alemán Unterseeboot U-27, un hombre que ha mirado la muerte de cerca. En sus cartas no solo explica cómo leer vientos y corrientes o trazar una derrota: habla del miedo que paraliza y del que enseña, de la diferencia entre fugarse del mundo y elegir con lucidez una vida más libre.
Cartas a un joven navegante no es un libro de navegación. Es un libro sobre el valor de elegir una vida propia.
Lo que dice la crítica:
«Mathiote escribe con la precisión del navegante y la paciencia del maestro. Cornelius Öhrn es uno de los personajes más inolvidables de la literatura francesa reciente».
La Quinzaine Littéraire
«Mathiote logra algo rarísimo: que la técnica se vuelva poesía y que la filosofía resulte práctica. Un libro para leer en tierra y recordar en la mar».
Voiles et Voiliers
«La correspondencia entre Cornelius y Alix tiene la densidad de los grandes relatos de iniciación: cada carta es un umbral».
Magazine Littéraire
«Un libro que enseña lo que ningún manual puede enseñar: que el mar es, antes que nada, una forma de conocerse».
Le Monde des Livres
«Estas cartas tienen la serenidad y el peso de las cosas que solo se aprenden una vez».
