Rasero is a historical novel by Mexican writer Francisco Rebolledo, published in 2003. The plot follows the life of Fausto Rasero, a Spanish intellectual who associates with figures of the Enlightenment such as Diderot, Voltaire, and Robespierre. In Paris, Rasero writes a moral treatise titled 'Why I Hate You,' where he criticizes the dreams of reason and foresees the dangers of rationalism. Opting for love as an antidote, his sentimental life reflects his visionary ideals. Rebolledo took fifteen years to write this novel, documenting it with the reading of 200 books, describing it as an 'exceptional canvas' of the events of the 18th century.
