En estas páginas nace, vive y muere (al menos por el momento) el fotógrafo Castellón, uno de los personajes más atractivos y enigmáticos de la literatura hispanoamericana reciente.
Una novela del ganador del Premio Cervantes 2017.
El lector verá a través del ojo de su cámara la falsificación alucinante de nuestras nacionalidades, la fantasía derrotada de los ideales y las utopías, la más persistente de ellas el canal por Nicaragua, y la convocatoria del genio y la miseria en diversos escenarios, desde el puerto de Greytown en Nicaragua, con sus palacios de mármol en medio de la selva, al ghetto de Varsovia y al monasterio de la Cartuja en Mallorca.
El mercenario Walker, el rey mosco, la reina Victoria, Napoleón el pequeño, el Archiduque Luis Salvador y su extravagante cortejo, Flaubert, Turguéniev y George Sand, sin olvidar a Chopin, se dan cita aquí, junto con la pluma envidiosa del escandaloso Vargas Vila y la prosa florida de Rubén Darío.
Reseña:
«Ramírez es de esa estirpe de escritores que ha hecho de América Latina y de sus historias fabulosas la patria literaria de su obra, llámese ese espacio y sus espíritus lo real maravilloso, realismo mágico o como quiera uno llamarle.»

About the Author
Sergio Ramírez (Masatepe, Nicaragua, 1942). Premio Cervantes 2017, forma parte de la generación de escritores latinoamericanos que surgió después del Boom. Tras un largo exilio voluntario en Costa Rica y Alemania, abandonó por un tiempo su carrera literaria para incorporarse a la revolución sandinista que derrocó la dictadura del último Somoza. Ganador del Premio Alfaguara en 1998 con Margarita, está linda la mar, galardonada también con el Premio Latinoamericano de novela José María Arguedas, es además autor de las novelas Castigo divino (1988, Premio Dashiell Hammett), Un baile de máscaras (1995, Premio Laure Bataillon), Sombras nada más (2002), Mil y una muertes (2005), La fugitiva (2011), Sara (2015), la tetralogía protagonizada por el inspector Dolores Morales formada por El cielo llora por mí (2008), Ya nadie llora por mí (2017), Tongolele no sabía bailar (2021) y La maldición de Ramfis (2026) y El caballo dorado (2024; Premio Bienal de novela Mario Vargas Llosa). Entre sus obras figuran también los volúmenes de cuentos Catalina y Catalina (2001), El reino animal (2007), Flores oscuras (2013) y Ese día cayó en domingo (2022); el ensayo sobre la creación literaria Mentiras verdaderas (2001), y sus memorias de la revolución, Adiós muchachos (1999). En 2021 el Grupo de Diarios América (GDA) lo escogió como el personaje latinoamericano del año por su activa defensa de la libertad de expresión y de la democracia en su país. Además de los citados, en 2011 recibió el Premio José Donoso por el conjunto de su obra literaria, en 2014 el Premio Carlos Fuentes, en 2021 la Medalla de Oro del Círculo de Bellas Artes, en 2023 el Premio Festival Eñe y en 2026 el Premio Ortega y Gasset de Periodismo.
