Synopsis "Héroes de la frontera"

Del autor de El Círculo, una road novel que sigue la estela de En la carretera de Jack Kerouac, Hacia rutas Salvajes de Jon Krakauer y Canadá de Richard Ford. Una novela que reflexiona sobre la pérdida y la búsqueda de nuevas oportunidades. Josie se siente cansada y disgustada con una vida que se encuentra a años luz de la que alguna vez soñó. Tiene cuarenta años, dos hijos y el apremiante anhelo de mandarlo todo a paseo. Separada de su marido y tras perder su consultorio dental, se siente culpable por la muerte de un joven paciente al que animó a ir a Afganistán. Harta del ritmo frenético de la gran ciudad, se deshace del móvil, renuncia a su tarjeta de crédito y alquila una destartalada caravana para viajar a Alaska junto a sus hijos de ocho y cinco años, Paul y Ana, los otros dos héroes de esta historia. Sin avisar a nadie y sin fecha de regreso, deja atrás sus posesiones y sus errores para salir al encuentro del nuevo sueño americano: renacer en una tierra de luz y montañas. Las novelas de Eggers siempre tienen algo de advertencia, y si en la anterior, El Círculo, el autor se planteaba los peligros de las nuevas tecnologías, en Héroes de la frontera nos previene de las asfixiantes ataduras de las sociedades acomodadas y nos alienta a cambiar de rumbo y a cruzar la frontera que separa lo trivial de lo esencial.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONJosie and her children's father have split up, she's been sued by a former patient and lost her dental practice, and she's grieving the death of a young man senselessly killed shortly after enlisting. When her ex asks to take the children to meet his new fiancée's family, Josie makes a run for it to Alaska with her kids, Paul and Ana. At first their trip feels like a vacation: they see bears and bison, they eat hot dogs cooked on a bonfire, and they spend nights parked along icy cold rivers in dark forests. But as they drive in their rattling old RV, pushed north by the ubiquitous wildfires, Josie is chased by enemies both real and imagined, and past mistakes pursue her tiny family, even to the very edge of civilization. A captivating, often hilarious novel of family, loss, wilderness, and the curse of a violent America, Heroes of the Frontier is a powerful examination of our contemporary life and a rousing story of adventure.
