ABC of Spain 2 / Juan Marse (Barcelona, 1933) must be one of the few Spanish authors who, tempted by academic honeys, has not only said no, but it has done twice. “Twice invited me into the SAR. Vino de la Concha García Muñoz Molina with assistant, but my argument was simple. What am I to do in Madrid? My job is here,” says Barcelona writer. “I’ve spent half my life saying no,” he admits.
Fortunately, the other half it has been passed saying yes, why bulky and monumental “While happiness comes. A biography of Juan Marse” (Anagram) is now a reality. An extensive and detailed portrait of over 700 pages that captures the life and work of the author of “Last evening with Teresa” and before the Barcelona writer can not do enough to remove iron. “My life has no interest. To me a writer with an interesting life would be Hemingway, who was hunting lions in Africa, participated in the First World War and the Civil War and had lots of lovers,” he says.
“Even I do not wonder why I told you so,” he added addressing Josep Maria Basin, thorough biographer who has spent the last six years shaping this manual author’s use of “Round guinardó “that despite what he says Marse, exudes vital and literary interest. “His memoirs are already meticulously reflected in his novels, so it would not make sense to Marsé write about. In contrast, the external gaze itself that made sense,” says Cuenca, for whom his immersion in the Marsé universe is also a way to honor fundamental characters like Gabriel Ferrater, Carlos Barral and Jaime Gil de Viedma, luxury side for this story starring as the Marsé own, “an unlikely character.”
A writer born between jewelry and cinéphiles that has surprised you find in the text data related to their biological family, who always “disinterested much” devotions, and which particularly pleased ” rediscover “Paulina Cruse, his” fairy godmother “literary and much of the letters exchanged recover. “I’ve been stunned his tremendous generosity. He’s a character that has been ninguneado and deserved to be rescued,” said Marse. If he were, there would have been everything. Or almost everything. “If you had made a hagiography I would have gone a mellow and infumable thing, because I’m a saint. I am very good person teases the writer. Luckily you count the controversies that I have had with peliculeros or threshold, since it is what saves the biography “.
Is there, in the field of dialectics anger, we find the Marsé mocking, sardonic. The ingenious enemy of “bad literature, that which passes through a selectively label and it is not” able to define stroke puja Juan Goytisolo, Francisco Threshold or Baltasar Porcel. “Threshold represented for me the kind of writing that’s busting me… When the brilliant language prevails over me otherwise I think it’s cheating, and Threshold represented Prose rattle that was above all A Cela he went a little too, with that pompous prose. But in the end, literature is a matter of taste. There was nothing personal, just like Baltasar Porcel. It was just him and climbs that could not stand. As would the Mafia, it’s nothing personal. But hey, Porcel then insulted my mother, “a Marsé incorrigible.
