Botchan (Maestro Darling)
Imagínese a un joven, recién salido de la ciudad, lleno de ideales y un ardiente sentido de justicia, lanzado a un mundo provincial que parece decidido a aplastar a ambos. Ese es el corazón de Natsume Sosekis Botchan, una obra fundamental de la literatura japonesa moderna, también conocida por su encantador título en inglés, Master Darling. Este no es sólo un cuento pintoresco de una época pasada; es un retrato hilarantemente nítido y profundamente humano de la inocencia frente a la hipocresía, un choque que resuena a través de siglos y culturas. Los oyentes de hoy se encontrarán riendo, se agachando y finalmente reconociendo un pedazo de sí mismos en la obstinada negativa de Botchan a comprometerse, una lucha tan relevante ahora como cuando se publicó por primera vez hace más de cien años.
