Cáscara de nuez (Nutshell)

by Ian McEwan

Overview

Un divertimento, un juego, un tour de force, genial y apoteósico: la preparación de un crímen narrada por un feto. Trudy mantiene una relación adúltera con Claude, hermano de su marido John. La pareja de amantes concibe un plan: asesinar a John envenenándolo. El motivo: una mansión georgiana valorada en unos ocho millones de libras que, si John muere, heredará Trudy. Pero resulta que hay un testigo de esta maquinación homicida: el feto que Trudy lleva en sus entrañas. Y, en una pirueta de triple salto mortal, McEwan convierte al feto en el narrador de la novela, desde la primera página hasta la última.
