About this item
LA INCREÍBLE HISTORIA DEL HARRY POTTER FALLIDO
VUELVE EL MEJOR FOENKINOS (MÁS DE TRES MILLONES DE LECTORES Y QUINCE PREMIOS LITERARIOS) CON UNA GENUINA NOVELA SOBRE EL ÉXITO Y EL FRACASO, EN LAS LISTAS DE MÁS VENDIDOS
«Gracias por este libro, hechicero Foenkinos». –M. P., L’Express
«Una novela divertida y melancólica, cruel y dramática». –Laurence Caracalla, Le Figaro Littéraire
En 1999 centenares de jóvenes pasaron por las audiciones para interpretar a Harry Potter. Entre los dos candidatos que llegaron hasta el final, Daniel Radcliffe fue elegido por tener, según la directora del casting, «ese algo extra». Al leer estas declaraciones, David Foenkinos empatizó de inmediato con el chico que no tenía ese toque extra: el número dos. Esta novela narra su historia.
La vida de Martin Hill, un chico con padres divorciados y gafas negras y redondas, da un vuelco cuando acude por azar a la productora londinense en la que trabaja su padre el mismo día en que pasa por ahí David Heyman, inmerso en la búsqueda del actor que encarnará al pequeño mago. Tras ser descartado, Martin irá cayendo en sucesivas depresiones con cada nueva entrega de los libros y las películas. A su alrededor, todo le recuerda el éxito de su rival y poco a poco, en lugar de disfrutar de la vida de Radcliffe, la suya propia empieza a parecerse a la del atormentado personaje de ficción. ¿Podrá sobreponerse a esa mancha en su destino y hacer del fracaso una fuerza?

Following the success of his bestselling novels La Délicatesse and The Mystery of Henri Pick, screenwriter and novelist David Foenkinos presents his latest book, Number Two.
1999 began the casting to find the young boy who would interpret Harry Potter and who, thereby, would become world famous. Hundreds of actors were auditioned. Eventually, there were only two left. In Number Two, David Foenkinos tells the story of the one who was not chosen.
