| Ricardo is making himself sick over his obsession with the girl next door,and Elias is hopelessly infatuated with a local prostitute. One lives in thebustle of Mexico City and the other in the quiet of a tiny Baja Californiatown. They both find themselves in a world dominated by desire where"love begins to wither from the moment it takes root." They spend their days agonizing over women and their nights dream-ing of them. They invent erotic stories whose labyrinthine plots twist andturn into wildly comic and lyrical testaments to the difficulties of love. With this novel, Eloy Urroz joins the ranks of such eminent LatinAmerican writers as Jorge Luis Borges, Julio Cort~izar, Carlos Fuentes,and Manuel Puig, marking the American debut of one of the most bril-liant Mexican writers working today. |
