???Matar no es tan extremo ni tan dif???cil e injusto si se sabe a qui???n.??? Tras la aclamada Berta Isla , llega la nueva y esperada novela de Javier Mar???as. Una intriga absorbente que explora el env???s del ???No matar???s???. ???Yo fui educado a la antigua, y nunca cre??? que me fueran a ordenar un d???a que matara a una mujer. A las mujeres no se las toca, no se les pega, no se les hace da???o#??? Dos hombres, uno en la ficci???n y otro en la realidad, tuvieron la oportunidad de matar a Hitler antes de que ???ste desencadenara la Segunda Guerra Mundial. A partir de este hecho, Javier Mar???as explora el env???s del ???No matar???s???. Si esos hombres quiz??? debieron disparar contra el F???hrer, ???cabe la posibilidad de hacerlo contra alguien m???s? Como dice el narrador de Tom???s Nevinson, ???ya se ve que matar no es tan extremo ni tan dif???cil e injusto si se sabe a qui???n???. Tom???s Nevinson, marido de Berta Isla, cae en la tentaci???n de volver a los Servicios Secretos tras haber estado fuera, y se le propone ir a una ciudad del noroeste para identificar a una persona, medio espa???ola y medio norirlandesa, que particip??? en atentados del IRA y de ETA diez a???os atr???s. Estamos en 1997. El encargo lleva el sello de su ambiguo ex-jefe Bertram Tupra, que ya, mediante un enga???o, hab???a condicionado su vida anterior. La novela, m???s all??? de su trama, es una profunda reflexi???n sobre los l???mites de lo que se puede hacer, sobre la mancha que casi siempre trae la evitaci???n del mal mayor y sobre la dificultad de determinar cu???l es ese mal. Con el trasfondo de episodios hist???ricos de terrorismo, Tom???s Nevinson es tambi???n la historia de qu??? le sucede a quien ya le hab???a sucedido todo y a quien, aparentemente, nada m???s pod???a ocurrir. Pero, mientras no terminan, todos los d???as llegan# ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The final novel from Spain's most acclaimed writer, a novel about a charismatic half-Spanish, half-English man who is recruited by British intelligence "Javier Mar???as's best work." -- El Pa???s After his acclaimed Berta Isla , comes Javier Mar???as' long-awaited new novel. It is a mesmerizing intrigue that explores the underside of "Thou shalt not kill." Two men, one in fiction and one in reality, had the opportunity to kill Hitler before he unleashed World War II. Based on this fact, Javier Mar???as explores the basis of "You shalt not kill." As its narrator put it, "you can see that killing is not so extreme or so difficult and unfair depending on who your target is." Tomas Nevinson, Berta Isla's husband, falls into the temptation of returning to the Secret Services. In 1997, after having been away for a while, he was assigned to go to a northwestern city in search of a suspect who participated in attacks made by the IRA and ETA ten years before. The novel is a deep reflection on the limits and restraints of what can be done, on the stain that comes with avoiding the greatest evil, and on the struggle of determining what that evil is. Against the background of historical terrorist attacks, Tomas Nevinson is also the story of what happens to someone who has already had everything happen to him, and to whom, apparently, nothing else could happen.
