by Jorge Comensal (Author)

Una novela de misterio y zoología, de adicciones y crisis familiares, de fantasmas, crisis climática, agujeros negros y masculinidad desorientada.

El 28 de mayo de 2029, durante una ola de calor, las llamas consumen el Bosque de Chapultepec, el parque donde se encuentra el Panteón Dolores y el zoológico de la ciudad. No parece haber sido un accidente: el fuego comenzó con la hoguera de un hombre vestido de sacerdote en la fosa común del cementerio. En el incendio mueren casi todos los árboles del parque y los animales del zoológico. A partir de ahí, la historia de Rebeca y Karina se cruza con la de Silverio, vigilante del panteón y padre de la precoz activista climática y ecológica, Daenerys. Estos personajes emprenden caminos de reinvención que pasan por resolver varios enigmas: quién era el sacerdote quemado en el Panteón, cómo consiguió Rebeca la botella de brandy con la que se embriagó, qué les pasó a los padres de Karina hace 18 años, cómo se aparean los tiburones, qué será del huevo de emú que se salvó del fuego y más.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A mystery novel about zoology, addiction, and family crises, about ghosts, the climate crisis, black holes, and disoriented masculinity.

On May 28, 2029, during a heat wave, flames consume the Bosque de Chapultepec, the park where the Panteón de Dolores and the city zoo are located. It doesn't look like it was accidental --the blaze spread from the pyre lit by a man dressed as a priest in the cemetery's mass grave. Almost all trees and animals in the park perish in the fire. From then on, Rebeca and Karina's story intersects with Silverio's, caretaker at the cemetery and father of Daenerys, a precocious climate and environmental activist. These characters set out on journeys of reinvention that come to be after solving several enigmas: who was the priest burned at the Panteón? How did Rebeca get the bottle of brandy with which she got drunk? What happened to Karina's parents 18 years ago? How do sharks mate? What will happen to the emu egg that survived the fire? And more.
