BESTSELLER DEL NEW YORK TIMES - FINALISTA DEL NATIONAL BOOK AWARD - FINALISTA DEL MAN BOOKER PRIZE - GANADOR DEL KIRKUS PRIZE - UNA SENSACIÓN VIRAL EN BOOKTOK Una novela que sigue el hilo de la gran literatura norteamericana y que ha llegado para dar un nuevo sentido al silencio y un nuevo valor a las emociones. La novela que hay que leer. Para descubrir... Qué dicen y qué callan los hombres. De dónde viene y dónde va la culpa. Cuánto importa el sexo. A quien podemos llamar amigo. Y finalmente... Qué precio tiene la vida y cuándo deja de tener valor.
Para descubrir eso y más, aquí está Tan poca vida, una historia que recorre más de tres décadas de amistad en la vida de cuatro hombres que crecen juntos en Manhattan. Cuatro hombres que tienen que sobrevivir al fracaso y al éxito y que, a lo largo de los años, aprenden a sobreponerse a las crisis económicas, sociales y emocionales. Cuatro hombres que comparten una idea muy peculiar de la intimidad, una manera de estar juntos hecha de pocas palabras y muchos gestos. Cuatro hombres cuya relación la autora utiliza para realizar una minuciosa indagación de los límites de la naturaleza humana. Tan poca vida se ha convertido en un auténtico fenómeno literario, un éxito sin precedentes en las redes sociales que ha sido unánimemente aclamado por la crítica y los lectores. Hanya Yanagihara, su autora, ha sido comparada con Jonathan Franzen y Donna Tartt por su capacidad para describir con maestría la psicología de personajes complejos y hallar en el camino respuesta a cuestiones universales. Una nueva y joven voz literaria que ha llegado para quedarse. Mejor novela del año según The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, Vanity Fair, Vogue, The Guardian, The Economist, Newsweek, People, Time Out New York, Huffington Post, Publishers Weekly, Kirkus Review, entre otras.

A MAN BOOKER PRIZE FINALIST
A NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FINALIST
A VIRAL SENSATION ON BOOKTOK Brace yourself for the most astonishing, challenging, upsetting, and profoundly moving book in many a season. An epic about love and friendship in the twenty-first century that goes into some of the darkest places fiction has ever traveled and yet somehow improbably breaks through into the light. Truly an amazement--and a great gift for its readers. When four classmates from a small Massachusetts college move to New York to make their way, they're broke, adrift, and buoyed only by their friendship and ambition. There is kind, handsome Willem, an aspiring actor; JB, a quick-witted, sometimes cruel Brooklyn-born painter seeking entry to the art world; Malcolm, a frustrated architect at a prominent firm; and withdrawn, brilliant, enigmatic Jude, who serves as their center of gravity. Over the decades, their relationships deepen and darken, tinged by addiction, success, and pride. Yet their greatest challenge, each comes to realize, is Jude himself, by midlife a terrifyingly talented litigator yet an increasingly broken man, his mind and body scarred by an unspeakable childhood, and haunted by what he fears is a degree of trauma that he'll not only be unable to overcome--but that will define his life forever. In rich and resplendent prose, Yanagihara has fashioned a tragic and transcendent hymn to brotherly love, a masterful depiction of heartbreak, and a dark examination of the tyranny of memory and the limits of human endurance.
