La obra de Wolfgang Borchert es 'la de un hombre que se sabe agonizante', escribe Fernando Aramburu en su epilogo. Unas 300 páginas bastaron a Borchert para alcanzar el rango de clásico de las letras alemanas del siglo XX. Como Buchner, Lautréamont o Radiguet, Borchert, muerto a los 26 años, unió la excelencia artística y una muerte temprana. Un puñado de cuentos, otro de poemas y una obra de teatro son sus Obras Completas, publicadas aquí por primera vez en castellano en traducción de Fernando Aramburu. Cadáveres que arrastra la corriente, despedidas en estaciones, trenes nocturnos cargados de soldados rumbo a la muerte... Borchert inauguró en Alemania la literatura del trauma y de las ruinas.

Author

Wolfgang Borchert
Author · 8 books
German author and playwright whose work was affected by his experience of dictatorship and his service in the Wehrmacht during the Second World War. His work is among the best examples of the Trümmerliteratur movement in post-World War II Germany. His most famous work is the drama "Draußen vor der Tür (The Man Outside)", which he wrote in the first days after World War II. In his works he never makes compromises in questions of humanity and humanism. He is one of the most popular authors of the German postwar period, and today his work is often read in German schools.
