| Synopsis | The selection of stories that make up La piel insomne is, in the author’s words, a kind of director’s version, a settling of scores with certain texts written and published between 1987 and 1993, and which were originally included in the books Donde la piel es tu tibio silencio, Páginas para una siesta húmeda and Insomnios del otro lado. In addition, the final section, “Bonus tracks”, brings together five stories that appeared in periodical publications or anthologies, but which have not been collected in books. Montiel Figueiras dared to venture down the paths of revision and rewriting, to reorder the index of a book that tells us about his first years as a narrator, a time when he already demonstrated a writing fluency and a literary ability that have led him to occupy a prominent place among the authors of his generation. These stories display the prose that characterizes the writer's work: a sinuous reality plagued by labyrinths, threatening or sensual presences that threaten to change the world, plots that lead us to discover the darkness that inhabits every thing and being that inhabits the universe. |
