Crónica 16
El 7 de marzo de 1687, un grupo de judíos conversos mallorquines, temiendo ser detenidos por la Inquisición, decidieron embarcarse rumbo a tierras de libertad. El mal tiempo frustró su huida, fueron apresados y, finalmente, treinta y siete de ellos condenados a la hoguera en cuatro Autos de Fe, en la primavera de 1691.
En el último azul, Premio Nacional de Narrativa, recrea cómo vivieron y murieron los criptojudíos mallorquines del siglo XVII, en un mundo en el que se entrecruzan inquisidores, aristócratas, comerciantes, campesinos, bandoleros o mujeres venales, ofreciendo un amplio mosaico de acontecimientos, en cuya trama el lector queda atrapado desde las primeras páginas.
La crítica ha dicho...
«En el último azul es una excelente novela que permitirá al lector amante de lo literario descubrir un filón de placer... Cuando en una novela el lector no puede casi levantar sus ojos de ella, aferrado al desarrollo de una densa trama, enganchado al primoroso destilar de su intriga y necesitado de llegar a un ansiado final apenas queda otras cosa que descubrirse ante su autor.»
Ramón Acín, Heraldo de Aragón
«En el último azul está a la altura de las mejores novelas: por su ambición, por el rigor y la riqueza lingüística, por la habilidad para barajar invención y tradición y por dotar de un pensamiento actual a una novela histórica, sin que pierda por ello el sabor de época.»
Fernando Valls, El Mundo
«Enel último azul es una ajustada y bien construida novela contra los horrores de la intolerancia.»
Miguel García-Posada, El País
