Patrimonio: Una historia verdadera

Escrito por Philip Roth

Narrado por Eduard Doncos

Una historia conmovedora sobre la lucha de Herman Roth, padre del escritor, contra un tumor cerebral.

Un agente de seguros jubilado, un hombre que fuera fuerte, lleno de genio y de encanto, lucha a sus ochenta y seis años contra un tumor cerebral. Este hombre es Herman, el mejor personaje creado por Philip Roth. Su padre.

Patrimonio. Una historia verdadera no es solo un portentoso acto de honestidad y sensibilidad, que habla de la vulnerabilidad del amor, de la relación padre e hijo, y de la muerte y el miedo que nos produce, sino un canto a la tenacidad del superviviente, al testarudo compromiso de Herman Roth con la vida. Su patrimonio.

Reseña:
«Patrimonio es una deuda de amor y un acto de entendimiento. No se puede hacer más corta la Muerte.»
José María Guelbenzu, Babelia
