Add to basketAmbientada en el convulso Dublín de los años posteriores a la guerra civil irlandesa (1922-1923), El delator es una historia de traiciones y lucha clandestina. Publicada en 1925, y considerada una de las mejores novelas del irlandés Liam OFlaherty, retrata el mundo de los bajos fondos dublineses, refugio de pistoleros y prostitutas, en el que acechan enemigos aún más peligrosos que la propia policía: los confidentes. Gypo Nolan, un duro ex terrorista, deambula por la ciudad sin dinero ni un lugar donde pasar la noche. Su suerte parece cambiar cuando reúne el coraje suficiente para delatar a un compañero de armas y con la recompensa obtenida iniciar un periplo que le llevará por las pensiones y burdeles de la ciudad. Su tranquilidad se ve amenazada cuando la Organización Revolucionaria a la que pertenecían ambos terroristas decide darle caza para juzgarlo en secreto. Terror y traición reinan en este thriller clásico que retrata, como pocos, las luchas políticas clandestinas de aquellos años y que fue adaptado al cine por John Ford en una película homónima por la que obtuvo, entre otros, el Oscar al mejor director. Una de las figuras más poderosas y originales de la literatura irlandesa durante más de medio siglo The Irish Times. Gran novela, tan rebosante de vida que no resulta terrible, pese a su temática. W. B. Yeats . Una pequeña obra maestra en su género. Su retrato del brutal informador tiene tanto colorido y la narración se desvela con tanta pefección que lo hacen un libro estimable. Verdaderamente es una historia inolvidable Sunday Times.
