Vuelve Rosa Montero con La carne , una intriga emocional que nos habla del paso del tiempo, del miedo a la muerte, del fracaso pero tambi�n de la esperanza, de la necesidad de amar y de la gloriosa tiran�a del sexo, de la vida entendida como un lance fugaz en el que devorar o ser devorado. �Al final todo acaba por desembocar en el amor. Y en el da�o.� Una noche de �pera, Soledad contrata a un gigol� para que la acompa�e a la funci�n y as� poder dar celos a un examante. Pero un suceso violento e imprevisto lo complica todo y marca el inicio de una relaci�n inquietante, volc�nica y tal vez peligrosa. Ella tiene sesenta a�os; el gigol�, treinta y dos. Desde el humor, pero tambi�n desde la rabia y la desesperaci�n de quien se rebela contra los estragos del tiempo, el relato de la vida de Soledad se entreteje con las historias de los escritores malditos de la exposici�n que est� organizando para la Biblioteca Nacional. La carne es una novela audaz y sorprendente, la m�s libre y personal de las que ha escrito Rosa Montero. Ganadora, entre otros, del Premio Primavera de Novela, el Premio Grinzane Cavour, El Premio Qu� Leer al Mejor Libro del A�o y el Premio de la Cr�tica de Madrid. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Rosa Montero is back with a story of love, sex, and heartbreak. Soledad has decided to take revenge on her last lover, who has just left her. Through a social networking site, she hires a man to pass for her boyfriend during a night at the opera: Adam, an attractive Russian almost thirty years her junior, with whom she will start a passionate and perhaps dangerous relationship, while she prepares an exposition for the National Library dedicated to damned writers whose lives are a testimony to the rage and glory of passion, to the wound of time and the fear of failure. Because that's what this book is about: life understood as a fleeting turning point in which you must eat or be eaten.
