Publisher Description

FonoLibro presenta el audiolibro en español de la nueva novela del aclamado autor de El Alquimista y Once Minutos, acerca del poder de una obsesión, y la búsqueda de un hombre que intenta recuperar un amor perdido.

El narrador de El Zahir es un aclamado autor de renombre internacional que vive en Francia y disfruta de los privilegios que le otorgan su fama y su dinero. Esther, su esposa de hace diez años, es corresponsal de guerra y a pesar de su éxito profesional, y su relativa libertad de los confines tradicionales del matrimonio, se enfrenta a una crisis existencial que la atormenta silenciosamente. Un día, Esther desaparece con su amigo Mikhail, quien podría o no ser su amante, y, perplejas ante la ausencia de indicios, las autoridades deciden cuestionar al narrador. Todos se preguntan si Esther fue secuestrada o asesinada, o si fue que simplemente decidió abandonar un matrimonio que la dejaba insatisfecha.

El narrador no tiene las respuestas pero poco a poco comienza a interrogarse sobre su propia existencia. Sin embargo un día, Mikhail, el hombre con quien Esther fue visto por última vez, encuentra al narrador y promete llevarlo a donde se encuentra su mujer. Se embarcan un viaje que los lleva del suntuoso glamour de Paris, a Kazakhstan, el lugar de origen de Mikhail. Y es en este misterioso lugar, marcado por una historia a la vez trágica y espiritualmente poderosa, que el narrador comienza a hacer sorprendentes descubrimientos sobre si mismo.

Esta evocadora novela de Paulo Coelho es la fascinante historia de una obsesión por recuperar un amor perdido, y una búsqueda por comprender cómo se relaciona con la libertad, la realización personal, y la necesidad que cada cual tiene de alcanzar sus metas.

"The pace was too slow, but I loved Coelho's obsession with details, and knack to portray characters multi dimensionally with their past, sins, love etc. I certainly find his books amazing, they open multiple windows of thought for me. Zahir is certainly one such book. "

    " In the middle of the book right now. Really amazing how the author can describe the feelings of a protagonist. It truly amazes me. I even found a LOT of parallels with the relationship between characters in the book and the characters in my life. "

    " the only reason i didn't want to put this book down after the first few chapters is because i have a bad habit of finishing what i start. One of the worst books i've read. "
