El 6 de septiembre del 2022 se dio a conocer que la vida del poeta y escritor Peter Straub<\/strong> hab\u00eda llegado a su fin, su obra profundiza en los misterios de la mente humana, en la conducta de los individuos que se enfrentan a situaciones al l\u00edmite.<\/p>\n

Naci\u00f3 en 1943 en Estados Unidos, hijo de un agente de ventas y una enfermera. A los 7 a\u00f1os, lo atropellaron y casi pierde la vida, tuvo que aprender a caminar de nuevo, curiosamente a su gran amigo y colaborador Stephen King le ocurri\u00f3 un accidente similar, solo que King ya era un adulto.<\/p>\n

La amistad entre Stephen King y Peter Straub<\/strong> dio frutos, se trata de dos novelas en las que trabajaron juntos con el objetivo de dejar sin dulces sue\u00f1os a miles de lectores: \u201cEl Talism\u00e1n\u201d<\/em> en 1984 y \u201cCaja Negra\u201d<\/em> en el 2001.<\/p>\n

Poeta y escritor de m\u00e1s de 70 novelas, aunque no todas fueron de terror. En 1979 lleg\u00f3 su primer \u00e9xito literario al publicarse su libro \u201cGhost Story\u201d,<\/em> otros textos destacados del maestro Peter Straub<\/strong> son \u201cKoko\u201d, \u201cFantasmas\u201d y \u201cFloating Dragon\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n

Pese a ser un gran escritor de terror, no fue muy popular y \u00fanicamente se realizaron dos pel\u00edculas basadas en su obra, la antes mencionada novela \u201cGhost Story\u201d<\/em> lleg\u00f3 al cine en 1981 bajo la direcci\u00f3n de John Irvin y un guion de Lawrence D. Cohen. La protagonizaron Fred Astaire y Melvyn Douglas.<\/p>\n

La otra adaptaci\u00f3n es de 1977 y se le conoce como \u201cFull Circle Movie\u201d<\/em> o tambi\u00e9n \u201cThe Haunting of Julia\u201d <\/em>basado en su texto de 1975 \u201cJulia, si pudieras verme ahora\u201d,<\/em> con la direcci\u00f3n de Richard Loncraine y protagonizada por Mia Farrow, quien interpreta a Julia, una mujer acosada por un fantasma que podr\u00eda ser\u2026 su hija fallecida.<\/p>\n

Pese a ser un escritor capaz de provocar terror a trav\u00e9s de las palabras, en entrevista para la revista \u201cInsomia\u201d<\/em> en 2006 afirm\u00f3 \u201chay un enorme n\u00famero de cosas banales y ordinarias que me asustan. Soy un gran cobarde\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n

Finalmente \u00a0\u201cThe New York Times\u201d<\/em> citando a su esposa Susan da a conocer que Peter Straub falleci\u00f3 el domingo 4 de septiembre del 2022 tras complicaciones ocurridas despu\u00e9s de una fractura de cadera, su muerte se hace p\u00fablica hasta el 6 de este mismo mes.<\/p>\n

Su hija Emma, le recuerda en twitter a trav\u00e9s de an\u00e9cdotas y fotograf\u00edas, mientras que otros grandes como Neil Gaiman le conmemoran como \u201cUno de los mejores escritores que he le\u00eddo\u201d <\/em>mientras que su gran amigo Stephen King, escribe \u201cTrabajar con \u00e9l fue una gran dicha dentro de mi vida creativa\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cLos cobertores se hab\u00edan deslizado hasta que mi pecho qued\u00f3 al descubierto. Entonces, con un gran esfuerzo los aferr\u00e9 y los sub\u00ed nuevamente hasta mi cabeza. Esper\u00e9, escuch\u00e9, esper\u00e9. Una vez m\u00e1s comenz\u00f3 el firme jal\u00f3n\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
