El Sentido De Un Final Spanish edition

Tony Webster y su pandilla conocieron a Adrian en el instituto. Hambrientos de sexo y literatura, atravesaron juntos la adolescencia y se prometieron seguir siendo amigos para siempre. Pero cuando la vida de Adrian dio un vuelco tragico, todos, especialmente Tony, miraron hacia otro lado, se alejaron. Ahora Tony vive solo en un pacifico y prospero retiro, tras una vida opaca que poco tiene que ver con la que fantaseaba en su juventud. Y un dia recibe una carta de un abogado: Sarah Ford, la madre de Veronica, su primera novia, le ha legado quinientas libras y un sobre con un manuscrito. Le entregan el dinero y una carta de Sarah, pero el manuscrito nunca llega. Y Tony averigua que son los diarios de Adrian, que ahora estan en manos de Veronica y no piensa entregarselos. Y estos diarios son el oscuro, enigmatico corazon de una novela esplendida, premiada con el prestigioso Man Booker. / Tony Webster and his crew met Adrian at boarding school. Hungry for sex and literature, they experienced adolescence together and they promised to stay friends forever. But when Adrian's life takes a tragic turn, they all, especially Tony, look the other way. Now Tony lives alone in quiet and prosperous retirement, after an opaque life that bore little resemblance to what he fantasised about in his youth. One day he receives a letter from his lawyer: Sarah Ford, the mother of his first girlfriend, Veronica, has left him 500 pounds and an envelope containing a manuscript. He receives the money and a letter from Sarah, but the manuscript never arrives. Tony discovers it is Adrian's diary, that are now in Veronica's hands and she has no intention of handing it over. These diaries are the dark, enigmatic heart of a magnificent novel, awarded the prestigious Man Booker Prize.

""A short book, but not light. Julian Barnes reveals crytalline truths that have taken an entire life to form"" (Liesl Schillinger, The New York Times).
