Requirements: ePUB, MOBI or PDF reader, 561 KB/823 KB/1.7 MB
Overview: Javier Marías was born in Madrid. His father was the philosopher Julián Marías, who was briefly imprisoned and then banned from teaching for opposing Franco. Parts of his childhood were spent in the United States, where his father taught at various institutions, including Yale University and Wellesley College. His mother died when Javier was 26 years old. He was educated at the Colegio Estudio in Madrid.
Marías began writing in earnest at an early age. "The Life and Death of Marcelino Iturriaga", one of the short stories in While the Women are Sleeping (2010), was written when he was just 14. He wrote his first novel, Los dominios del lobo (The Dominions of the Wolf), at age 17, after running away to Paris.
Marías operates a small publishing house under the name of Reino de Redonda. He also writes a weekly column in El País. An English version of his column "La Zona Fantasma" is published in the monthly magazine The Believer.
Así empieza lo malo cuenta la historia íntima de un matrimonio de muchos años, narrada por su joven testigo cuando éste es ya un hombre maduro. Juan de Vere acaba de finalizar sus estudios y encuentra su primer empleo como secretario personal de Eduardo Muriel, un antaño exitoso director de cine, en el Madrid de 1980. Su trabajo le permite entrar en la privacidad de la casa familiar y ser espectador de la misteriosa desdicha conyugal entre Muriel y su esposa Beatriz Noguera.
Un grupo de amigos visita habitualmente la casa de los Muriel: inteligentes, cultos, mundanos, ocultan entre sí un pasado de cuyas consecuencias el presente está preso. Viven una época en la que se empiezan a contar en privado cosas lejanas que muchos españoles se habían visto obligados a callar en público durante decenios. Pero cuando es del todo imposible saber la verdad, cada quien cree tener la libertad de decidir qué lo es.
