Frases de Clive Barker
página 4

Clive Barker es un escritor, director de cine y artista visual. Estudió Inglés y Filosofía en la Universidad de Liverpool.

Barker es uno de los más aclamados autores en los géneros de horror y fantasía. Inició su carrera con diversos relatos de horror recopilados en la serie Libros de Sangre y la novela faustiana El libro de las maldiciones . Posteriormente se trasladó hacia el género de la fantasía moderna con toques de horror.[1]​ El estilo más característico de Barker es la idea de que existe un mundo subyacente y oculto que convive con el nuestro , el rol de la sexualidad en lo sobrenatural y la construcción de mitologías coherentes, complejas y detalladas.

Libros de Sangre fue publicado en Estados Unidos en una edición barata. Sin embargo, la originalidad, intensidad y calidad de las historias hicieron que el ya popular por entonces Stephen King manifestara: “He visto el futuro del horror y su nombre es Clive Barker” .

The Hellbound Heart

“La oscuridad también ha de desempeñar un papel. Sin ella, ¿cómo sabríamos que caminamos por la senda de la luz? Solamente cuando sus pretensiones se crecen debemos enfrentarnos a ella, domarla y a veces –llegado el caso- someterla durante un tiempo. Después se erguirá de nuevo, como debe ser.”

(1987), BOOK ONE: IN THE KINGDOM OF THE CUCKOO

“Your average game show host on TV, for instance, doesn't believe himself to be banal. He actually thinks that he's quite interesting. And if you look at the viewing figures, so do an enormous number of people in this country.”

American Heroes #174

“Always the sightseers: open-mouthed, disbelieving. There was a force for desolation loose in their midst which could consume their lives at a glance, surely they could see that? But they’d watch anyway, willing to embrace the void if it came with sufficient razzmatazz.”

Part Seven “The Demagogue”, Chapter vi “Hello, Stranger”, Section 2 (p. 307)
(1987), BOOK TWO: THE FUGUE

“Shadwell?” said Suzanna.
“Their beloved Prophet,” came the reply. “Beneath that show of holiness I lent him there beats a salesman’s heart.”
So Shadwell was the Prophet. What a perfect irony, that the seller of encyclopedias should end up peddling hope.
“It was his idea,” said the Incantatrix, “to give them a Messiah. Now they’ve got a righteous crusade, as Hobart calls it. They’re going to claim their promised land. And destroy it in the process.”
“They won’t fall for this.”
“They already have, sister. Holy wars are easier to start than rumors among your Kind or mine. They believe every sacred word he tells them, as though their lives depended upon it. Which in a sense they do. They’ve been conspired against and cheated—and they’re ready to tear the Fugue apart to get their hands on those responsible. Isn’t that perfect? The Fugue’ll die at the very hands of those who’ve come to save it.”
“And that’s what Shadwell wants?”

Part Eleven “The Dream Season”, Chapter ii “Representations”, Section 2 (p. 479)
(1987), BOOK THREE: OUT OF THE EMPTY QUARTER

“Flesh is our indisputable commonality. Whatever our race, our religion, our politics we are faced every morning with the fact of our bodies. Their frailties, their demands, their desires. And yet the erotic appetites that spring from - and are expressed through - those bodies, are so often a source of bitter dissension and division. Acts that offer a glimpse of transcendence to one group are condemned by another. We are pressured from every side - by peers, by church, by state - to accept the consensual definition of taboo; though so often what excites our imaginations most is the violation of taboo.”
