Overview

Hay un vampiro en la ciudad de MĆ©xico. Necesita tu sangre. Quiere tu vida. Desea a las personas que amas. Y no te quitarĆ” sĆ³lo eso.

ĀæAcaso no es la ciudad de MĆ©xico, con una poblaciĆ³n de 10 millones de habitantes y una fuerza policiaca a la que no le importan un par de personas desaparecidas, el hogar ideal para un vampiro moderno?

En la Ćŗltima novela escrita antes de su muerte, Carlos Fuentes propone una revisiĆ³n de aquĆ©l personaje cuya crueldad mĆ­tica inspirara la novela DrĆ”cula de Bram Stoker.
No luche mĆ”s, Navarro. Ignora usted los infinitos recursos de la muerte. Regrese a la maldiciĆ³n del trabajo, que para usted es una bendiciĆ³n, lo sĆ© y lo entiendo. Usted vive la vida. Yo la codicio. Es una diferencia importante. Lo que nos une es que en este mundo todos usamos a todos, algunos ganamos, otros pierden. ResĆ­gnese.

Un viejo aristĆ³crata europeo, el conde Vlad Radu, se instala con su hija en una mansiĆ³n con pinta de monasterio en la ciudad de MĆ©xico. Tras soportar siglos de guerras y escasez de sangre humana en Europa, ha decidido trasladarse al otro lado del oceano AtlĆ”ntico y reestablecer su imperio. Aunque para ello deba contratar los servicio de Yves Navarro, un abogado, y de su esposa AsunciĆ³n, una agente de bienes raĆ­ces que guarda un misterioso parecido con una mujer retratada en una antigua fotografĆ­a...

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Where, Carlos Fuentes asks, is a modern-day vampire to roost?Ā Why not Mexico City, populated by ten million blood sausages (that is, people), and a police force who won't mind a few disappearances?

"Vlad" is Vlad the Impaler, of course, whose mythic cruelty was an inspiration for Bram Stoker's Dracula. In this sly sequel, Vlad really is undead: dispossessed after centuries of mayhem by Eastern European wars and rampant blood shortages. More than a postmodern riff on "the vampire craze," Vlad is also an anatomy of the Mexican bourgeoisie, as well as our culture's ways of dealing with death. For--as in Dracula--Vlad has need of both a lawyer and a real-estate agent in order to establish his new kingdom, and Yves Navarro and his wife Asunci?n fit the bill nicely. Having recently lost a son, might they not welcome the chance to see their remaining child live forever? More importantly, are the pleasures of middle-class life enough to keep one from joining the legions of the damned?
