Summary
Manuel Vilas: Joy
Everything we loved and everything we lost will turn into joy. In the solitude of hotel rooms and airports, in the cities he visits after the great and unexpected success of his last book, the writer we met in Ordesa Manuel Vilas sets out in search of the most incomprehensible and sacred element of every life - joy. But where is his? Is he in the past, to which he returns obsessively, called by the voices of the deceased, or in the present, with a new girlfriend and fame, and sons who are slowly but surely moving away? As he travels and tries to find her - in an ocean wave, in an orange juicer, in shirts that are never white enough - his constant interlocutors, the ghosts of his mother and father, are joined by a third: the deep dark bass of Arnold Schönberg, his angel of depression. Solar and strong, full of sudden illuminations and the courage to face the darkest corners of the soul, Joy by Manuel Vilas is a true celebration of life, a book by a great writer of our time, who balances between autobiography and fiction, and manages to transform the intimate into the universal. I know very well that I'm making everything up, I know that you don't hear me, I know very well that nothing happened the way I'm talking about, I know very well that there wasn't that much love, I know very well that everything was banal, I know very well that I'm crazy for making up this love story, for making up my life, which is not the way I tell it, because Arnold is actually telling it, that unbearable being, and at the same time too great.
