by Antolina Ortiz Moore (Author)

Con una atmósfera de radionovela y ritmo de bolero, Antolina Ortiz Moore --autora finalista del Premio Rómulo Gallegos (2020) y el Premio Nadal en España (2019)-- lleva a cabo una asombrosa reconstrucción histórica. Un libro que apela a todos nuestros sentidos y suscita emociones fuertes , Guadalupe Nettel.

Ciudad de México, 1951. Una lluvia torrencial sorprende a los citadinos. El caos cunde mientras una serie de sucesos trágicos --como el hallazgo de mujeres asesinadas flotando en los drenajes de la ciudad-- ha puesto en evidencia la descomposición de la gran urbe. Los habitantes de una vecindad del centro histórico, náufragos entre las montañas nevadas del valle de México, padecen --como todos-- el diluvio. Sus voces emergen con el lago que ha vuelto a desbordarse sobre las aceras: un niño con poliomielitis que sueña con volar, un panadero español, una maestra feminista, un artista homosexual, un judío refugiado; cada personaje guarda secretos, dolores existenciales y --a pesar de todo-- una profunda esperanza.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

With the atmosphere of a radio drama and the rhythm of a bolero, Antolina Ortiz Moore --finalist for the Rómulo Gallegos Prize (2020) and the Nadal Prize in Spain (2019)-- "delivers a stunning historical reconstruction. A book that appeals to all our senses and evokes powerful emotions," --Guadalupe Nettel.

Mexico City, 1951. A torrential rain takes the locals by surprise. Chaos spreads as a series of tragic events --like the discovery of murdered women floating in the city's drains-- reveal the unraveling of the great metropolis. The residents of a tenement in the historic downtown, stranded among the snowy peaks of the Valley of Mexico, endure the flood like everyone else. Their voices rise with the lake that has overflowed onto the sidewalks: a boy with polio who dreams of flying, a Spanish baker, a feminist teacher, a gay artist, a Jewish refugee; each character harbors secrets, existential pain, and --despite it all-- deep hope.
