Juntos para siempre
By "eamon_88" - December 5, 2002En el libro Aura, el autor Carlos Fuentes hace una crítica de la época colonial, cuando los mexicanos no tenían la libertad. Fuentes publicó este libro en 1965. El cuento tiene lugar en México. Un hombre joven, Felipe Montero, ve un anuncio para un trabajo que parece ser para él y solamente él. Felipe va a una entrevista con la mujer vieja que está ofreciendo el trabajo. Él acepta el trabajo en la mansión colonial después de ver los ojos de la sobrina bonita de la mujer. Felipe trabaja en la mansión, y no tiene permiso para salir. Él nota muchas cosas raras, que incluyen una conexión extraña entre Aura, la sobrina, y su tía, la Sra. Llorente. Él quiere ayudar a Aura para que ella pueda escapar el control de su tía. Felipe también se siente una conexión con Aura. Una noche Felipe y Aura hacen el amor, pero Felipe ve a la Sra. Llorente en... read more
Bilingual Edition....Beautiful Story....Excellent translation
By L. Shirley "Laurie's Boomer Views" - July 12, 2006This review refers to the Bilingual Edition of "Aura" by Carlos Fuentes..
This was my first read of Carlos Fuentes, and I was very impressed. I am already adding others by Fuentes into my cart. "Aura" is a novella that will keep you involved from the first page to the last. The story, told as if you the reader are the main character,pulls you right into the emotions he is feeling, from the joy of a new job, to the love and lust towards a beautiful woman, to the fear of the unknown. As others have said, the style is akin to Poe. The words flow beautifully, the story is chilling.
Sr. Montero finds an ad for a chance at the job of a lifetime. The pay will keep him comfortable fo quite a while, and that at first is a big draw. He will be organizing and rewriting the journals and memoirs of a distinguished gentlemen for his very old widow. It must be done before she dies. The old woman is an fragile figure, over 100 years old. She insists he stay at the very dark and... read more
Un relato lleno de magia
By S. Hernandez - August 22, 2004"Aura" ha causado controversia recientemente en Mexico, donde un grupo conservador trato de prohibirla como lectura escolar para adolescentes. Me toco leerla cuando fui alumna de un colegio catolico muy conservador... y nos encanto! Mas de 15 años despues, la relei y me sigue encantando. Para empezar, la narracion es en segunda persona, muy original! Te agarra desde el principio y no la puedes soltar. Desde la pagina uno, nos convertimos en protagonistas de un misterio que nos llama por nuestro nombre y no tenemos mas remedio que responder al llamado. Somos invitados a la casa de una anciana y su bella sobrina, una casa llena de gatos, de figuras de santos, de rituales, de misterios, y de amores olvidados que quieren renacer, cargados de sensualidad. Es un libro muy cortito (mi edicion tiene 62 paginas), pero da mucho para descubrir. El protagonista vive una historia de amor con una de las mujeres de la casa (o con las dos?) y durante ese tiempo, vemos referencias a tradiciones... read more
