Book description
La extraordinaria primera novela de Samanta Schweblin, en la que se basa la película homónima de Claudia Llosa para NETFLIXHipnótica, incómoda y atrapante. PREMIO TIGRE JUANPREMIO OJO CRÍTICONOMINADA AL PREMIO MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL El campo ha cambiado frente a nuestros ojos sin que nadie se diera cuenta. Y quizá no se trate solo de sequías y herbicidas, quizá se trate del hilo vital y filoso que nos ata a nuestros hijos, y del veneno que echamos sobre ellos. Nada es un cliché cuando finalmente sucede. Distancia de rescate sigue esta vertiginosa fatalidad haciéndose siempre las mismas preguntas: Hay acaso algún apocalipsis que no sea personal? Cuál es el punto exacto en el que, sin saberlo, se da el paso en falso que, ahora sí, nos condena? Samanta Schweblin ha escrito un relato extraordinario e hipnótico, urgente y perdurable, que logra mantenernos inevitablemente atrapados y sumergirnos en un universo de ficción estremecedor.
