Synopsis
El murmullo de las abejas tiene todos los ingredientes esenciales para convertirse en un cl sico de la literatura mexicana contempor nea. El murmullo de las abejas , el descubrimiento literario del a o La autora que despierta la historia de M xico y recupera su lugar en nuestros corazones. En Linares, al norte del pa s, con la Revoluci n mexicana como tel n de fondo.Un buen d a, la vieja nana de la familia abandona sorpresivamente un reposo que parec a eterno para perderse en el monte. Cuando la encuentran, sostiene dos peque os bultos, uno en cada brazo: de un lado un beb misterioso y del otro un panal de abejas. Ante la insistencia de la nana por conversar y cuidar al peque o, la familia Morales decide adoptarlo. Cubierto por el manto vivo de abejas que lo acompa ar n y guiar n para siempre, Simonopio llega a cambiar la historia de la familia que lo acoge y la de toda una regi n. Para lograrlo, deber enfrentar sus miedos, el enemigo que los acecha y las grandes amenazas de la guerra: la influenza espa ola y los enfrentamientos entrelos que desean la tierra ajena y los que proteger n su propiedad a toda costa. El murmullo de las abejas huele a lavanda, a ropa hervida con jab n blanco, a naranjas y miel: una historia impredecible de amor y de entrega por una familia, por la vida, por la tierra y por un hermano al que se ha esperado siempre, pero tambi n, la de una traici n que puede acabarlo todo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From a beguiling voice in Mexican fiction comes an astonishing novel--her first to be translated into English--about a mysterious child with the power to change a family's history in a country on the verge of revolution. From the day that old Nana Reja found a baby abandoned under a bridge, the life of a small Mexican town forever changed. Disfigured and covered in a blanket of bees, little Simonopio is for some locals the stuff of superstition, a child kissed by the devil. But he is welcomed by landowners Francisco and Beatriz Morales, who adopt him and care for him as if he were their own. As he grows up, Simonopio becomes a cause for wonder to the Morales family, because when the uncannily gifted child closes his eyes, he can see what no one else can--visions of all that's yet to come, both beautiful and dangerous. Followed by his protective swarm of bees and living to deliver his adoptive family from threats--both human and those of nature--Simonopio's purpose in Linares will, in time, be divined. Set against the backdrop of the Mexican Revolution and the devastating influenza of 1918, The Murmur of Bees captures both the fate of a country in flux and the destiny of one family that has put their love, faith, and future in the unbelievable., Más de un millón de ejemplares vendidos.
