✦ Synopsis


Despreciada por su propio autor, olvidada por la crítica y desconocida para la mayoría de los lectores, «Franklin Evans» es la única novela que Whitman escribió en toda su vida. La obra es un compendio de las preocupaciones y gustos del entonces joven periodista y popular autor Walter Whitman, quien una década más tarde se convertiría en Walt Whitman, la voz poética representativa de los Estados Unidos del siglo XIX. De «Franklin Evans» llegaron a venderse unos veinte mil ejemplares, una cifra que, sin embargo, jamás alcanzó ninguna edición de «Hojas de hierba» en vida del autor. La novela pertenece a un género que durante el siglo XIX inundó el mercado literario y la vida de los norteamericanos: la ficción antialcohólica, un fenómeno integrado en las corrientes reformistas que barrieron los Estados Unidos de la primera mitad del siglo XIX. En ese sentido, además del tema antialcohólico otro más general recorre la novela: la educación y formación del joven norteamericano en una sociedad crispada por los cambios y la crisis económica.
