Synopsis | Winner of the national «Fuentes Mares» Prize, 2022. The same as Comala, Bavispe is a small town crushed by the heat and an apparent monotony which stories are transformed by Carlos René Padilla into unforgettable narratives inhabited by ghosts and living beings willing to take away our calm while reading. Padilla makes use of a language that is often poetic and at the same time rooted in orality to narrate a variety of rural dramas that go from the presence of ghosts in the streets to the violence of revenge, that seem to update the narrative of Juan Rulfo. |
