Overview

«Pocas autoras nos sumergen como Virginie Despentes en el pantanal asfixiante en que se ha convertido nuestra época». El País

«He leído lo que publicaste en tu cuenta de Insta. Eres como si una paloma se me cagara en el hombro: una guarrada asquerosa. Buáá buáá buáá soy una mierdecilla que no le interesa a nadie y berreo como un chihuahua para ver si me hago notar. Vivan las redes sociales: has logrado tus quince minutos de gloria. La prueba: te estoy escribiendo». Rebecca, una actriz en la cincuentena con una carrera en declive, responde con estas palabras a Oscar, un novelista cuarentón que acaba de insultarla en redes sociales. Al darse cuenta de que ya se conocían, nace entre ellos una correspondencia en la que irán deponiendo las armas. Ambos recordarán el pasado y su afición por las drogas, hasta que Oscar es acusado de acoso sexual por su antigua responsable de prensa.
 
Novela de rabia y consuelo, Querido capullo es un incisivo análisis de nuestra sociedad a través de un hombre cancelado, una actriz olvidada y una joven acusadora; un relato que demuestra que la amistad puede hacer frente a cualquier debilidad humana. En una novela que está revolucionando las letras francesas, Despentes despliega las aristas del #MeToo, de los feminismos, de las redes sociales, de las adicciones y de lo que significa envejecer en nuestra sociedad.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

“Few authors match Virginie Despentes’s ability to immerse us in the suffocating swamp of our times.” - El País

“I read your Instagram post. It was like a pigeon crapped on my shoulder: a disgusting mess. Boohoo, I’m a piece of shit no one cares about, so I’ll yap like a chihuahua until someone notices me. Long live social media: You’ve had your fifteen minutes of fame. The proof is, I’m writing to you.” Rebecca, a middle-aged actress whose career is in decline, dashes off this reply to Oscar, a forty-year-old novelist who has been insulting her online. Realizing that they know each other, they begin a correspondence that soon adopts a friendlier tone. They bring up stories from the past and recall their shared drug use, until Oscar is accused of sexual harassment by his former press agent.  
 
Both angry and conciliatory, Dear Jerk is an incisive social analysis told through the eyes of a “cancelled” author, a washed-up actress and a young accuser. It is also a story of the power of friendship to overcome human weakness. In a novel that has taken the French literary scene by storm, Despentes takes on #MeToo, feminism, social media, addiction and what it means to grow old in our society.
