Condición: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Edmunds B?rzs, un arquitecto de éxito, desaparece repentinamente sin dejar rastro durante el trayecto de regreso a su casa en Riga, después de haber ido a visitar la granja de sus padres. Nadie sabe si se ha fugado voluntariamente o si ha sido víctima de un crimen. Su mujer, Ed?te, se encarga de que se inicien las investigaciones policiales, que enseguida parecen llegar a un punto muerto. No hay señales de B?rzs ni indicios de su paradero, tampoco pruebas de si está vivo o muerto. En el transcurso de la búsqueda, el inspector Valdis Str?ga, responsable del caso, se sentirá cada vez más vinculado al desaparecido y se verá sumido en un proceso de introspección y análisis de su propia vida. Publicada originalmente en 1972, La jaula es un clásico de la literatura letona. Un extraordinario relato psicológico y de suspense escrito por uno de los novelistas letones más destacados. Muchos han interpretado La jaula como una alegoría de la opresión soviética pero, ante todo, esta novela nos invita a reflexionar sobre el sentido de la libertad individual. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.

Hard Cover. Condición: Very Good +. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good +. Vassili Shulzhenko Ilustrador. 367pp. A very good + clean, bright, tight copy. Translated by David Foreman. Two novels and ten short stories. "The Voice of the Herald" : This novel centers around the role of the press and the power of communication. It explores how the media can shape public opinion, influence societal change, and reflect the tensions of the time. The story likely focuses on a journalist or a similar figure who becomes involved in a larger political or social struggle, reflecting the Soviet-era concerns about propaganda, truth, and responsibility. "The Investigator" : The Investigator is a crime thriller that delves into the world of investigation and justice. The protagonist is likely an investigator who is tasked with solving a complex case. As the narrative unfolds, the investigator uncovers layers of deceit, corruption, and moral dilemmas. This novel examines the nature of truth, power, and the human psyche, set against a backdrop of political and social challenges. Both books showcase Albert Bels' focus on characters grappling with difficult ethical choices within broader political and societal contexts." ( collegestreet_book).
