THEMA Modern and contemporary fiction: general and literary
Synopsis The landscape of Monclova and Cuatro Ciénegas (in northern Mexico) is the scenery where two brothers’ lives, loves and deaths intertwine. Narrated with a poetic rhythm, this story about friendship, jealousy and violence, initiation and maturity, also suggests the absences and ghosts that wander across the Mexican desert. This novel shows an author capable of managing all of realisms’ registers, from the most naked and filthy ones to those which defeat the expectations.
