| Synopsis | The protagonists of these stories are fragile men, unsatisfied wives, insecure and violent husbands, daughters who do not want to be mothers, submissive women on the verge of rebelling, misogynistic boys, girls who yearn for an independent life. Traveling between Mexico and Spain, between Monterrey and Barcelona, Some of These Things Are True portrays with a great deal of black humor the ridiculousness of social conventions, the asymmetry of romantic relationships, the fears and traumas that dominate us, uncontrollable passions, everyday machismo and classism. In a country accustomed to euphemisms, in a society addicted to secrets and in favor of concealment, Vicky González says the things that many of us think but do not dare to say, which is disturbing and, above all, hilarious. Twenty stories that reveal a writer with unusual acuity and extreme sensitivity to expose the lies, pretenses and hypocrisies of our time. There is only one thing more exciting than discovering a great writer: having seen her mature. I have been reading these stories for years, witnessing how this book was slowly taking shape, steeped in irony, aged in barrels of irreverence and tenderness. |
