Summary

Un insólito alarde de osadía narrativa.

Al igual que en las grandes novelas de aventuras que se escribían a finales del XIX, y a las que Travesía del horizonte rinde cariñoso y también burlón homenaje, esta novela, publicada a los veintiún años, tiene como hilo conductor una atrevida expedición: el capitán Kerrigan, millonario y excéntrico, ha organizado un viaje a la Antártida para hombres de letras y científicos.

Pronto adivina el oyente que esa travesía no es más que una excusa, o uno de los muchos hilos con los que está tejida esta trama. Construida según el modelo del relato-dentro-del-relato, Travesía del horizonte añade a la aventura marítima de Kerrigan otras historias y personajes no menos novelescos, en deliberada parodia de ciertos maestros del género que van desde Joseph Conrad hasta Henry James pasando por Conan Doyle; y entre pintorescos secuestros y manuscritos misteriosos, señoritas eduardianas y paisajes de navegación, se va desplegando un torbellino narrativo servido por un estilo paradójicamente pausado.

Reseña:

«Una desenfrenada novela de aventuras ante el espejo de la parodia.»
Juan Antonio Masoliver Ródenas
