Synopsis of La gran casa
La gran casa es una novela de Nicole Krauss que narra un viaje lleno de pasión y melancolía, desde Nueva York a Jerusalén, de Londres a Budapest, y desde los años cuarenta hasta nuestros días. El protagonista es un viejo escritorio que pudo haber pertenecido a Federico García Lorca y que se vuelve un objeto de fascinación o repulsión para aquellos que conviven con él. El imponente mueble, uno de cuyos diecinueve cajones está permanentemente cerrado, se torna así el hilo conductor entre los distintos ámbitos donde se desarrolla la novela. En Nueva York, una escritora ha estado utilizándolo desde que en 1972 se lo prestara un poeta chileno, Daniel Varsky, víctima de la policía secreta de Pinochet. Un día, una mujer que dice ser la hija de Varsky reclama el mueble, y la vida de la escritora ya no será la misma. Al otro lado del océano, en Londres, un hombre descubre el secreto que durante cincuenta años le ha escondido su mujer. Y, por último, una joven norteamericana que estudia en Oxford traba amistad con una excéntrica pareja de hermanos cuyo padre es un anticuario israelí especializado en recuperar muebles expoliados por los nazis. Llevando su arte narrativo a un nivel insospechado, Krauss reúne pacientemente los elementos en apariencia dispares de un relato fragmentado hasta convertirlo en una cautivante metáfora de la memoria y de la herencia, no sólo material sino sobre todo emocional.
