Synopsis of Lincoln in the Bardo

En febrero de 1862, la Guerra Civil estadounidense está en pleno apogeo. Mientras tanto, el amado hijo de once años del presidente Lincoln, Willie, yace gravemente enfermo en la Casa Blanca. En cuestión de días, Willie fallece y es enterrado en un cementerio de Georgetown. Los periódicos informan que un Lincoln afligido regresa a la cripta varias veces a solas para sostener el cuerpo de su hijo. A partir de esta semilla de verdad histórica, George Saunders teje una historia inolvidable de amor y pérdida familiar que se libera del realismo, entrando en un dominio emocionante y sobrenatural a la vez hilarante y aterrador. Willie Lincoln se encuentra atrapado en un reino de transición, llamado, en la tradición tibetana, el bardo, y mientras los fantasmas se mezclan, discuten, se quejan y se compadecen, y zarcillos pedregosos se arrastran hacia el niño, una lucha monumental estalla por el alma del joven Willie. Desarrollándose en el transcurso de una sola noche, 'Lincoln in the Bardo' está escrito con el humor, el patetismo y la gracia inimitables de George Saunders.
