No soy tan zen
Read moreTitle No soy tan zen Author Montelongo, José Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764914 Edition number 1 Publication year 2022 Pages 224 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis I'm Not So Zen is an existential comedy whose protagonist is caught up in a struggle between words and things. A strident internal battle takes place in the mind of Julián González, a cultural journalist, as he tries to pay attention to a string quartet that seems endless. The protagonist wants silence but life is stubborn and noisy and intrudes, and there are tacos and seafood and corn gorditas with green sauce and a lot of work and a lot of hurry. In a world like the one we live in—inside and outside the novel—it is not fair to remain silent, although, sometimes, accessing silence is just what we need. To accompany us on this journey of self-knowledge, a motley catalogue of characters circulates through the narrative: a tenor with a remote serenade service, a woman who gets lost for years inside a library, a Dionysian and erudite veteran of cultural journalism, a husky dog with a contemplative temperament. With this entertaining novel, José Montelongo offers us a concise satire of the cultural environment and the fauna that inhabits it, while inviting us to pay attention to the music of everything that surrounds us. foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
