Rendidos Chang-rae Lee Spanish, 1ª Ed. edition

June Han se ha forjado una vida a miles de kilometros del lugar donde nacio: ha montado su negocio en Nueva York. Pero en su pasado hay secretos de los que no ha hablado jamas con nadie, y treinta anos despues de escapar de una Corea destruida por la guerra, ha llegado la hora de enfrentarse a ellos. Hector Brennan, un fracasado de principio a fin, es el hombre que hace ya mucho tiempo salvo la vida de June. Y entre June y Hector esta la historia de la hermosa y desgarrada Sylvie Tanner, cuyo amor perseguian ambos. En una travesia que los lleva desde una Corea en ruinas hasta un antiguo campo de batalla italiano, June y Hector van en busca de su pasado, unidos por un legado de espanto, violencia y amor. Chang-rae Lee propone una profunda meditacion sobre la naturaleza del heroismo y el sacrificio, el poder del amor y la posibilidad de salvarnos, de rendirnos el uno al otro. / June Han has made a life for himself thousands of kilometres away from the place where he was born: he has set up his business in New York. But in his past there are secrets of which he has never spoken to anyone, and thirty years after escaping from a Korea destroyed by the war, the time has come to face them. Hector Brennan, ""a failure from start to finish"", is the man who a long time ago saved June's life. Between June and Hector lies the story of the beautiful and intense Sylvie Tanner, whose love pursued them both. On a journey that leads them from a Korea in ruins to an old Italian battle field, June and Hector go in search of their past, united by a legacy of fright, violence and love. Chang-rae Lee offers a profound reflection on the nature of heroism and sacrifice, the power of love and the possibility of saving ourselves, of surrendering ourselves to eachother.
