Overview

«Soy devoto lector de Epicuro, Gracián, Joubert y Séneca. Sumo a la obra de estos sabios maestros, que me acompañan en mi mesa de noche, la obra de Juan Esteban Constaín». –Álvaro Mutis

¿Es posible reinventar el pasado? ¿Hasta qué punto puede la ficción cambiar el curso de los acontecimientos? Marcelino Quijano y Quadra, payanés ilustrado e invencible tahúr, hombre de todas las épocas y de ninguna, se dedica a fabricar ficciones, un oficio tan misterioso como él mismo. Roba cartas de papel y husmea en ellas no solo para rastrear la novela que yace en toda suerte ajena, sino también para reescribirla y salvarla, como un dios discreto, anónimo y bienhechor. Su última misión es tan absurda y delirante que si no hubiera ocurrido de verdad sería increíble: la firma de la paz, en 1988, entre el Reino de Bélgica y el Departamento de Boyacá, en guerra, sin que nadie lo supiera, desde 1867.
 
Tras el éxito de El hombre que no fue Jueves, Juan Esteban Constaín regresa a la novela con una historia en la que entremezcla magistralmente la realidad y la ficción, esa dualidad fundamental que define y le da sentido a la vida.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Is it possible to reinvent the past? To which extent can fiction change the course of events? Marcelino Quijano y Quadra, erudite from Payanés and unbeatable gambler, a man of all ages and none, devoted to fabricating fictions, a craft as mysterious as he, steals paper letters and reads them, not only to track the novel that lies within every stranger’s fortune, but also to rewrite it and save it, like a discrete, anonymous, generous god. His last mission is so absurd and insane, that if it hadn’t truly happened, it would be unbelievable: the signing of peace, in 1988, between the kingdom of Belgium and the Department of Boyacá, at war since 1867, without anyone knowing.
 
After the success of The Man Who Wasn’t Thursday, Juan Esteban Constaín returns to storytelling with a novel where he masterfully combines reality and fiction, a fundamental duality that defines and gives sense to life.
