El Caligrafo de Voltaire (Voltaire’s Caligraphist) Audiobook Summary

Un forastero llamado Dalessius llega a un puerto con el corazon de Voltaire en un frasco y la obsesion no menos terrible por una mujer. Con estos elementos iniciales y el trasfondo de las ruinas del Antiguo Regimen, ocasionadas por la Revolucion Francesa, la novela consigue colocar a Voltaire y al arte de la caligrafia en un clima mas misterioso, qu real. En la busqueda de la renovacion de ese arte, Dalessius descubre palabras que desaparecen, letras que brillan en la oscuridad o tintas que envenenan. Recostado entre los ataudes de un servicio nocturno de entregas de cadaveres, y bajo las ordenes de Voltaire, viaja primero a Toulouse y luego a Paris, donde debe investigar un plan de fanaticos religiosos que luchan por acabar con la Ilustracion y devolver a Francia la fe perdida. Dalessius sigue los pasos de un fabricante de automatas, pinta mensajes secretos sobre mujeres desnudas y deja que el amor lo distraiga de su mision. A cada paso lo acecha la sombra del legendario caligrafo Silas Darel y una certeza ultima sobre su oficio: todo lo que sirve para escribir, tambien sirve para matar. Con notable agilidad en el relato, Pablo De Santis cuenta una inteligentisima intriga sobre la verdad de las palabras.
