Rita, Maria eta Emiliana

Emilio Lledok dioenez, liburua, funtsean, denbora gelditzen duen ontzia da. Bizitzaren esperientzia ezerezaren itsasoan galtzera kondenaturik zegoen, harik eta inprenta asmatu zen arte. Geroztik, gu bezalakoek gozatu, sufritu, amestu eta pentsaturikoa berreskura dezakegu. “Nolabaiteko betierekotasuna da hori –dio filosofoak–, besteen bizitzak gurera ekarri eta harekin aberastea ahalbidetzen digulako”. Horixe da, dudarik gabe, liburuen pagotxarik handiena.

Udako orri-pasa patxadatsuak, besteak beste, hiru lagun interesgarriren testigantza ezagutzeko parada eman dit. Hirurak bizitza oparo eta luzeko emakumeak, askatasun egarriak bultzaturik sorlekutik alde egindakoak, aitzindariak nor bere arloan, garaiko emakumezkoentzat arrotzak ziren zereginetan nabarmendu eta pasioari emanak bizi izan zirenak. Bat italiarra, espainiarra beste bat eta Euskal Herritarra hirugarrena.

Rita Levi da lehenbizikoa. 1941eko udan, Hitlerren armada Europan barna ikara zabaltzen ari den bitartean, gazte judutarra Turingo etxeko gela txiki batean dago ezkutaturik. Halere, lanean segitzen du buru-belarri, mikroskopio zahar baten aitzinean, neuroenbriologiaren arazo baten soluzioa aurkitu nahian. Nazien mehatxu ikaragarria hain hurbil sentitu arren, ez zuen etsi, pasioak emaniko indarrari esker, nik uste. Ehun urtetik gorako bizitzan, askotan gogoratu zituen bigarren mundu gerraren hasierako bizipenak, batez ere mende erdi geroago Nobel Saria jaso zuenean…

Maria Zambranok ere faxismoaren mehatxua pairatu eta etxetik alde egin behar izan zuen 1936ko gerraren ondorioz. Ajez beteriko espainiar demokraziaren ahuldadea hain agerikoa delarik, ur freskoa da filosofoaren diskurtsoa, gaurkotasun handikoa. Demokrazia “gizakiaren bizileku egokien”tzat jo eta gero, gizarte aldakorrak demokrazia bizia behar duela azpimarratzen du, usteldu eta zaharkituko ez bada.

Eta, azkenik, Emiliana Zubeldia, piano-jotzaile eta musikagile nafarra. Hura ere, garaiko giroak itota, Mexikora joan eta han musikari emana bizi izan zen, ia 100 urtetan hil zen arte. Nafarroako Gobernuak liburuaren aurkezpen-ekitaldian, ohiturari jarraituz, ederki ezkutatu zuen biografiak berak azpimarraturiko kontu bat: Zubeldiaren euskal kulturarenganako maitasuna. Euskaraz hitzik ez, kanturik ez.

Lledok arrazoi du: liburua altxor ederra da, galtzera kondenaturik zegoen esperientzia eskura jartzen digulako. Hiru emakumeona, esaterako.

The Haunting House of Haster. Arraioz, homosexuality, Madrid
"That I needed things clean, and that I knew clearly from the tick-tick what I wanted, what attracted me"
It is the stepping stone of the Larretxe, next to the axe, the stone lifters, the chinga bearers and, in general, the great popular sportsmen. Patxi is his father, while Donato is his uncle. The Haunted Man is a social worker, a writer, a homosexual. We should all be proud.
