About the Book

UN CLÁSICO DE LA LITERATURA CONTEMPORÁNEA, UNA DE LAS OBRAS MÁS INQUIETANTES DE LAS ÚLTIMAS DÉCADAS, AHORA EN UNA EDICIÓN TAPA DURA

Quizá los aromas nos hacen sentir invisibles.

Antes del tacto, sucede el olor, mensajero de una esencia que sabe desaparecer en el aire pero conserva un gran poder. La seducción que despliega el olor es implacable: se instala en nosotros y sella su poderío en los tejidos de la memoria.

Jean-Baptiste Grenouille tiene su marca de nacimiento: no despide ningún olor y por ello hace temer la presencia de algún demonio. Al mismo tiempo posee un don excepcional: un olfato prodigioso que le permite percibir todos los olores del mundo. Desde la pobreza en que nace, abandonado al cuidado de unos monjes, Grenouille lucha contra su condición y escala posiciones sociales convirtiéndose en un afamado perfumista. Crea perfumes capaces de hacerlo pasar inadvertido o inspirar simpatía, amor, compasión... Para obtener sus fórmulas magistrales debe asesinar a jóvenes muchachas vírgenes, obtener sus fluidos corporales y mezclar sus olores íntimos. Su arte se convierte en una labor suprema e inquietante prestidigitación.

Patrick Süskind nos transmite una visión ácida del hombre en un libro repleto de imaginación. Su persuasión iguala la de su personaje y nos embarca en un viaje literario hasta el arco iris de los olores y los turbadores abismos del espíritu humano.


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A MODERN CLASSIC, ONE OF THE MOST UNSETTLING NOVELS OF RECENT DECADES, NOW IN A HARDCOVER EDITION

Perhaps scents make us feel invisible.

Before touch comes scent, the messenger of an essence that vanishes into the air yet holds immense power. The seduction of scent is relentless: it settles within us and seals its influence in the fabric of memory.

Jean-Baptiste Grenouille is marked from birth: he gives off no scent, provoking fear of something inhuman. Yet he possesses an extraordinary gift: a remarkable sense of smell that allows him to perceive every scent in the world. Born into poverty and abandoned to the care of monks, Grenouille rises through society to become a renowned perfumer. He creates fragrances that can render him invisible or inspire sympathy, love, and compassion... but to craft his most powerful creations, he must murder young virginal women to capture their scent. His art becomes a dark and masterful obsession.

Patrick Süskind delivers a sharp reflection on human nature in a novel rich with imagination. As compelling as its protagonist, it draws readers into a literary journey through the spectrum of scents and the disturbing depths of the human soul.
