À propos de ce contenu audio

Brought to you by Penguin.

Dropped from the Olympic figure skating team, Nuria Martí’s fate pivots her into a world of corruption, jealousy – and revenge.

Cushioning her fall from grace, a besotted admirer builds a secret ice rink for her in the ruins of an old masion on the outskirts of their seaside town. What he doesn’t tell her is he paid for it using public funds. Such deceit is not without repercussions, and the skating rink soon becomes a crime scene.

Narrated by a corrupt and pompous civil servant, a beleaguered romantic poet, and a duplicitous civil servant, The Skating Rink is a darkly atmospheric tale of murder and its motives.

Commentaires

The Skating Rink…like much of what [Bolano] wrote, leaves many new novels looking pretty bland.
This Catalan drama sizzles with unrequited love and murderous ambition.
[A] short, exquisite novel
A sizzling cocktail of sex, death and obsession set on the Costa Brava.
Elegant, elusive and amusing
Roberto Bolaño’s work is a sprawling labyrinth of surprise, bold invention, and images that will live with you forever.
Roberto Bolaño was a game changer: his field was politics, poetry and melancholia . . . and his writing was always unparalleled
Roberto Bolaño offers a unique, multilayered and quirky perspective on contemporary life.
One of the most respected and influential writers of his generation... At once funny and vaguely, pervasively, frightening.
‘Latin American letters (wherever it may reside) has never had a greater, more disturbing avenging angel than Bolaño.
