| Synopsis | A mariachi with serious identity conflicts, quarrels between writers that go back to bellicose youthful encounters in writing workshops, emails sent from somewhat uncertain planes of existence, the countercultural odyssey of a father to ingratiate himself with his daughter, multiple modalities of that variation of masochism known as romance, the anthology Examen ejemplar, prepared by the author himself, condenses the techniques, strategies and narrative motifs of one of the most outstanding literary careers of today. More than a gesture of triumphalism, this volume has a desire for a second chance. The stories gathered here await a second encounter with the reader, the final arbiter of all literature. But this revenge is not granted due to any failure, but as confirmation of the qualities of an extraordinary pen. The vision of the chronicler, the scope of the novelist, the subtle ability to move the playwright: the arsenal of resources of an author as unique as Juan Villoro is presented in this volume to an extraordinary examination in which, without a doubt, the one who will come out ahead is a genre that does not allow distractions: the short story. |
