Immerse yourself in Alberto Fuguet's electrifying novel, where the bloody events reported by Alfonso, a young journalist, shape a map of a desperate and violent city. Join Alfonso and his colleagues from the newspaper El Clamor as they journey through a sordid and tragicomic Santiago, inhabited by characters on the edge of pathos and black humor. Amidst suicides, accidents, and crimes, the protagonists' dialogues reveal anecdotes that mix sex, drugs, fatality, and corruption in everyday life.
Alberto Felipe Fuguet de Goyeneche is a Chilean author, journalist, film critic and film director who rose to critical prominence in the 1990s as part of the movement known as the New Chilean Narrative.
