First Edition
A 1969 first American edition of Jorge Amado's beloved comic masterpiece, "Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands," one of the most celebrated novels to come out of Brazil in the 20th century. This is the story of Dona Flor, an adorable woman torn between her respectable second husband and the ghost of her charming, reckless first husband who refuses to stay dead. Amado's novel is alive with the color, heat, and sensuality of Bahia, Brazil. It's a comic exploration of love, desire, and the impossible question: can a moral woman enjoy two husbands at once? The book became an international sensation and was adapted into a wildly successful 1976 Brazilian film that remains one of the most popular films in Brazilian cinema history. Jorge Amado was Brazil's most famous novelist, celebrated internationally for his vibrant storytelling and his ability to capture the spirit of Brazilian life. This novel showcases his gift for creating unforgettable characters and blending humor, eroticism, and social observation into irresistible fiction.

First Edition
Plastified softcover. Condition: New. Primera edición. Excellent condition. Saltando con fluidez del esperpento al horror, Amado monstruo registra la insólita conversación de dos personajes aparentemente muy dispares, de los que se descubre, a lo largo de sus escaramuzas verbales, un vínculo común: la obsesión por una madre posesiva. Uno de ellos, Antonio, comete a los treinta años su primer acto de rebeldía y, desafiando a su madre que lo tiene prácticamente secuestrado, acude a una entrevista para solicitar el empleo de guarda jurado en un banco. El otro, Krugger, un jefe de personal inicialmente impasible, lo somete a un estricto interrogatorio para averiguar su capacidad para el uso de las armas de fuego, pero, en el curso de la conversación, se filtra un abominable secreto. Javier Torneo confirma en esta novela su capacidad para desarrollar, con impecable factura, situaciones ominosamente oníricas pintadas con un «acabado» hiperrealista. Tan cómico en ocasiones como espeluznante en otras, este relato dialogado no se olvida nunca de tirar del lector hasta conducirle a un desenlace sorprendente. «Un escritor de raza. Una obra maestra» (Rafael Conte, El País); «Soberbio, original, humorístico y sorprendente» (Art Press); «Cuando los complejos se revientan como si fueran abscesos nos hace evocar a Buñuel. Nos pone casi la carne de gallina» (Le Soir); «Esta pequeña obra maestra sarcástica encantará a los mártires del amor. Pero ¿quién osará regalarlo el Día de la Madre?» (Gabrielle Rollin, Le Atonde); Javier Torneo estudió derecho y criminología en la Universidad de Barcelona. En los ochenta se confirmó como uno de los más personales narradores españoles contemporáneos. Muchos de sus textos se han adaptado al teatro, en España y en otros países, con extraordinario éxito. En Anagrama se han publicado las novelas id castillo de la carta cifrada, Amado monstruo. Preparativos de viaje, El cazador de leones. Di ciudad de las palomas, Di máquina voladora. Los misterios de la Ópera. El canto de las tortugas, Diálogo en re mayor y Napoleón Vil. así como los libros de relatos Problemas oculares. Historias mínimas y Cuentos perversos. 118 pp. Compactos. 118 gm. If book and packaging weight exceeds 400 gms, additional shipping charges may apply. New. 12 x 18.5 cm.
