espanolLeaving the Atocha Station es la primera novela del escritor norteamericano Ben Lerner. Es una narracion en primera persona del ano que paso en Madrid Adam Gordon, un joven poeta de Estados Unidos que consiguio una beca para desarrollar una investigacion sobre las representaciones literarias de la Guerra Civil espanola. En la novela, basada en las propias experiencias de Lerner en Espana, se presenta la perspectiva de un viajero sobre un acontecimiento global como el ataque terrorista del 11 de marzo de 2004 en Madrid y sus repercusiones locales, teniendo en cuenta el recuerdo de la experiencia del 11 de septiembre de 2001; y plantea una reflexion sobre la relacion entre literatura y politica mediante un juego narrativo que se mueve entre el trabajo poetico y la realidad. Adoptando un planteamiento critico respecto a la literatura post-9/11, Lerner propone una radical desmitificacion del papel politico de la literatura y del arte y, destacadamente, plantea dudas sobre la supuesta obligacion de ofrecer una respuesta inmediata desde la esfera artistica a un determinado acontecimiento historico, con lo que presenta un desafio importante a la relevancia politica del trabajo artistico. Los ecos de un acontecimiento global como el ataque terrorista se entretejen con sus repercusiones sociales en una manifiesta perspectiva «glocal» EnglishLeaving the Atocha Station is Ben Lerner’s first novel. It is a first-person narration of a year spent in Madrid by Adam Gordon, a young poet from the United States given a Fulbright Scholarship to carry out a project on literary representations of the Spanish Civil War. The novel, based on Lerner’s own experiences in Spain, presents a traveler’s point of view on a global event such as the terrorist attack of March 11, 2004 in Madrid and its local repercussions with the memory of the recent experience of 9/11 in mind; it also reflects on the relationship between literature and politics, a narrative game that moves between poetry and reality. Taking a critical stance with post-9/11 literature, Lerner proposes a radical demystification of the political role of literature and art and, above all, expresses serious doubts about the supposed obligation of offering an immediate response to an historic event from the artistic sphere; he even challenges the political usefulness of the artistic work. A clear «glocal» perspective in which both the echoes of a global event such as a terrorist attack, and its social repercussions are intertwined
