El Anatomista: Novela Paperback - 1998
by Federico Andahazi
Based on historical fact, "The Anatomist" is an utterly fascinating excursion into Renaissance Italy, as evocative of time and place as the work of Umberto Eco. Above all, it is an audacious novel, exposing not only the social hypocrisies of the day, but also the prejudices and sexual taboos that may still be with us four hundred years later. Brilliantly translated from the Spanish, "The Anatomist" introduces American readers to a new writer of consummate wit and subversive flair.

Publicada por aclamaciin publica en Argentina, "El anatomista de Federico Andahazi lleva a los lectores a Venecia en el siglo XVI. Pues este es el momento y el lugar donde Mateo Colin, el anatomista, esta a punto de hacer un descubrimiento insilito: el centro del universo eritico en la mujer. Colin siempre se ha visto a si mismo como un hombre de razin y ciencia en una epoca muy supersticiosa. Pero hasta el se ve tentado a utilizar el arte quimerico, cuando se enfrenta al antiguo reto, que puede destruir las mas grandes mentes: Cimo hacer a una mujer profunda y deliciosamente feliz?
"El anatomista nos recuerda el alcance del exuberante sentido histirico de Umberto Eco, y el ingenio desinhibido y sensual de Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Con prosa tan delicada y suelta como una manta de seda, Federico Andahazi lleva a sus lectores en un viaje provocativo, recordandoles un territorio que jamas sera completamente conquistado, pero cuya exploraciin y descubrimiento nos brindan satisfacciin interminable.
Autor bestseller en Argentina, su pais de origen, Federico Andahazi nacii en Buenos Aires en 1963. Sus cuentos han recibido muchos premios y "El anatomista es su primera novela.
