Balthasar's Odyssey

It is 1665, and all the signs and portents foretell that next year the Antichrist will appear and the world will come to an end. Antiquarian merchant and sage Balthasar sets out in search of a rare book that may bring salvation to a distraught world, a mysterious work entitled The Hundredth Name. In the course of his odyssey throughout the Mediterranean and beyond, Balthasar travels through countries in ruin, cities in flames, and stricken communities awaiting the Apocalypse. He encounters fear, falsehood, and disillusion, but he also discovers love at a time when he had given up all hope.

  • "Corre el año de 1666, el año del Anticristo y, para muchos -agoreros, iluminados-, el del fin de los tiempos. Descendiente de genoveses asentados en el Líbano, Baldassare Embriaco, no logra sustraerse al clima generalizado de inquietud y emprende un viaje en busca de un libro que puede servir de protección en caso de que sobrevengan las catástrofes que se anuncian. EL VIAJE DE BALDASSARE llevará a éste por todo el Mediterráneo hasta Londres, y en su transcurso saldrán al paso de su protagonista el miedo, la violencia, el engaño, la desilusión y la desdicha, pero también el amor. Esta apasionante novela de AMIN MAALOUF es un recorrido en el que brotan tanto los choques como las vías de comunicación entre Oriente y Occidente, y también un periplo en el que, frente a los condicionamientos sociales, el individuo reivindica su derecho a ser extranjero sin humillaciones ni hostilidades."@es
