Doce relatos, doce pequeñas obras maestras de un autor en su mejor momento literario

«El autor, lejísimos de buscar placidez y comodidad en sus historias, es un maestro en el arte de la novela psicológica con mayúscula. --Isabel Llauger, Qué Leer

Hombres y mujeres en tránsito, llegados a un país o una ciudad nueva, viajeros atrapados en un crucero teóricamente paradisiaco que se convierte en pesadilla, parejas que cuanto más hablan menos se comunican, padres primerizos de un bebé llorón, mujeres que celebran un cumpleaños en el que no hay mucho que celebrar... toda una galería de personajes llenos de verdad y con vidas a la deriva protagonizan estos doce relatos de un autor en lo mejor de su carrera literaria.

La incursión del autor en el relato breve, con la destreza y la imaginación que ha derrochado en sus novelas y crónicas periodísticas. Un volumen perfecto como resumen de su obra e iniciación para nuevos lectores de Roncagliolo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Twelve tales, twelve little masterpieces by an author at his literary best.

"The author, far from seeking placidity and comfort in his stories, is a master in the art of psychological novel, in capital letters." --Isabel Llauger, Qué leer

Men and women just passing through, recently arrived in a new country or a new city. Travelers trapped in a supposedly idyllic cruise that turns into a nightmare. Couples that communicate less the more they speak. First time parents of a whiny baby. A group of women celebrating a birthday in which there is not much to celebrate... An entire cast of characters full of truth, with adrift lives, that star in these twelve tales by an author at the peak of his literary career.

Roncagliolo's incursion into short stories, done with the same skill and imagination he bestows his novels and journalistic chronicles. A perfect volume as summary of the author's work, and as introduction for new readers.
