Overview
«Una de las novelas más fantásticas y divertidas, al mismo tiempo enraizadas en lo que nos afecta como ciudadanos, que he leído» —AGUSTÍN FERNÁNDEZ MALLO
Manuel acuchilla a un policía antidisturbios que quería pegarle. Huye. Se esconde en una aldea abandonada. Sobrevive de libros Austral, vegetales de los alrededores, una pequeña compra en el Lidl que le envía su tío. Y se da cuenta de que cuanto menos tiene, menos necesita.
Un thriller estático, una versión de Robinson Crusoe ambientada en la España vacía, una redefinición del concepto «austeridad». Una historia que nos hace plantearnos si los únicos sanos son los que saben que esta sociedad está enferma. Santiago Lorenzo ha escrito su novela más rabiosamente política, lírica y hermosa.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
“One of the most fantastic and fun novels that I have read, while at the same time rooted in what affects us as citizens of the world.” —AGUSTÍN FERNÁNDEZ MALLO
Manuel stabs a riot police officer who wanted to hit him. He runs away. He hides in an abandoned village. He survives on Austral books, vegetables from the surrounding area, and on a small supermarket purchase that his uncle sends him. He soon realizes that the less he has, the less he needs.
A static thriller, a version of Robinson Crusoe set in Spain, a redefinition of the concept of "austerity." A story that makes us wonder if the only sane ones are those who know that this society is sick. Santiago Lorenzo has written his most gut-retching political, lyrical, and beautiful novel.
