Ciudad De Dios
E.l. Doctorow
En La ciudad de Dios, E. L. Doctorow entrelaza recuerdos, acontecimientos historicos y reflexiones, todo ello proyectado sobre una idea central: la realidad contemporanea de Dios. El eje del relato es la desaparicion de la gigantesca cruz de laton que pendia sobre el altar de St. Timothy's, una iglesia episcopal de Manhattan, que reaparece a los pocos dias en el tejado de una sinagoga en el otro extremo de la isla. / New York at the end of the 20th century--hardly St. Augustine's city of God--is the canvas on which Doctorow paints an impressionistic portrait of man's frail moral nature and the possibilities of redemption. Challenging and provocative, this rambling narrative is a mix of alternating voices that touch on such matters as theology, popular music, astronomy, physics and science, war, carnal love, the verisimilitude of film to life (and distortions thereof).
