Leached Ashes
(Hatoum, Milton)
After five years of silence, Leached ashes in offers its last romance to them. The book is called Leached ashes the North that in gives them to know Raymond (World) - Olavo (I wash) - Ranulfo (Uncle Ran) - Trajano (Jano) - Macau (Jesuíno) - Aranda, Alícia, Algisa, Ramira, Naiá and the dog Fire, accompanying fidiciary office of Jano. It is plus a great literary event, as it was the sprouting of Story of a certain East. One very forms special to conceive literature carries the workmanship of Hatoum. Of sartreana inspiration, therefore, we cannot wait of the hands of this writer the creation of any smoke curtain, with the intention to camouflage the incertitude of the man or any false crendices of the irrevocable beauty or of ideals of beauty previously constructed, where the man can rejoice of the beautiful creation human being. In contrast, in this romance the man appears as the fragile figure, victim of a loaded world of hopelessness, where the ethical values so decanted and pursued are presented as plus a fallacy. Exactly thus, we cannot believe that Hatoum wants in guaranteeing them, as it makes it a cheap literature, that the amoralism and that the scandal or the incredulity is a moment of the fashion or a man who, for whim, decided everything for in cause. It is much more of that this what it presents this writer. It deals with to the condition human being and a ontologia that an exempt being of badness, pesadume and malice scratches out with antecedence. Not he could to be de.outra.forma, since Leached ashes of the North have as main personages residues of a world that lost its characteristics, lost its essence, being submitted to the greed of the foreigners or the mestizos who if had left to corrupt for passengers of a world that exists beyond its necessities and its agreement. However, this is not condition of mestizos, it it is the proper condition human being, and, therefore, sample that the badness, the malice, the volúpia consists as proper elements of this species. Instead of finding that Hatoum speaks for the kept out of society ones, rebelled, excluded of a world of truths, enlargements, offerings and gifts, we can believe that its personages could be each one of us, independently to be European, sulamericanos, Asian, aboriginal, men, women or other buddings, therefore in he does not hide them what we are, what we could be, still that let us be born in Parintins or Dresden. He is in the search of World that if discloses to the possible maximum the human being. He is in the revolt of Ran that it searchs. He is in the resignation of Ramira that in we feel livings creature to them. He is in the assumed prostitution of Alícia that if illustrates one of the problems of men and women. He is in the comodismo of I wash that we try to acclaim our demons. He is, finally, in the venality of Macau and Aranda that we try to ludibriar the gift. At last, arteiramente Hatoum in gives a current picture to them of the man, of its searches, its frustações and the transmutação of the values.
