«Que un acto de tal brutalidad inspire una narración tan hermosa como esta es razón suficiente para que este debut literario destaque entre la multitud». --The Independent
«¿A quién pertenecen nuestros recuerdos? ¿Podemos convertirnos en los guardianes de la memoria de aquellos condenados a olvidar? Estas son las vertiginosas preguntas que Idaho plantea». --Leïla Slimani
Año 1995. En un caluroso día de agosto, una familia viaja en camioneta hasta un claro en el bosque para recoger leña. La madre, Jenny, es la encargada de cortar las ramas pequeñas. Wade, el padre, las amontona. Mientras, sus dos hijas, de nueve y seis años, beben limonada, juegan y cantan canciones. De repente, ocurre algo terrible que dispersará a la familia en todas direcciones. Nueve años después, Ann, la segunda esposa de Wade, se encuentra sentada en la misma camioneta. No puede dejar de imaginarse el terrible suceso, tratando de entender por qué ocurrió, y decide emprender una búsqueda urgente para hallar la verdad y así recuperar los detalles del pasado de Wade, que desde hace un tiempo muestra signos de demencia.
Novela de prosa exquisita y contada desde distintos puntos de vista, Idaho es un impresionante debut sobre el poder que la redención y el amor nos otorgan a la hora de convivir con lo incomprensible.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
LOS ANGELES TIMES BESTSELLER - A stunning debut novel about love and forgiveness, about the violence of memory and the equal violence of its loss--from O. Henry Prize-winning author Emily Ruskovich
WINNER OF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST BOOK AWARD - WINNER OF THE DUBLIN LITERARY AWARD - NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY BUZZFEED
Ann and Wade have carved out a life for themselves from a rugged landscape in northern Idaho, where they are bound together by more than love. With her husband's memory fading, Ann attempts to piece together the truth of what happened to Wade's first wife, Jenny, and to their daughters. In a story written in exquisite prose and told from multiple perspectives--including Ann, Wade, and Jenny, now in prison--we gradually learn of the mysterious and shocking act that fractured Wade and Jenny's lives, of the love and compassion that brought Ann and Wade together, and of the memories that reverberate through the lives of every character in Idaho.
In a wild emotional and physical landscape, Wade's past becomes the center of Ann's imagination, as Ann becomes determined to understand the family she never knew--and to take responsibility for them, reassembling their lives, and her own.
