About this listen
Una antología de cuentos negros que reúne por primera vez a los mejores narradores mexicanos del género, muchos de los cuales han sido reconocidos internacionalmente.
«En esta colección de cuentos Noir de los mejores autores mexicanos de este siglo, un atlas de las letras policiacas del país, se trata de dar una muestra de esta novedosa camada de escritores que abrazaron el compromiso de portar la bandera de la literatura negra sin enfado. Alzándose como autores que deseaban recuperar el espacio perdido con libros que se sienten globales, menos enraizados en la imagen institucional o en una falsa mexicanidad. Las narraciones muestran la descomposición del país, pero no se limitan a gritarlo en plana principal. Más bien lo disecan cual cadáver en forense, mostrándonos las causas de su defunción. En cambio, abiertamente le dan prioridad a la narración, al lenguaje y a la trama. Con eso, las obras se vuelvenun reverbero que expresa mejor que nadie a esta sociedad, su idiosincrasia y la extraña forma de apreciar la vida, a través de la muerte.»

Ricardo ve cumplido, a una edad muy temprana, el sueño que en su Lima natal alimentó desde que tenía uso de razón: vivir en París. Pero el rencuentro con un amor de adolescencia lo cambiará todo. La joven, inconformista, aventurera, pragmática e inquieta, lo arrastrará fuera del pequeño mundo de sus ambiciones. Testigos de épocas convulsas y florecientes en ciudades como Londres, París, Tokio o Madrid, que aquí son mucho más que escenarios, ambos personajes verán sus vidas entrelazarse sin llegar a coincidir del todo.

Corría el mes de julio de 1967 y eran unos niños, pero a partir de entonces Patti Smith y Robert Mapplethorpe sellaron una amistad que solo acabaría con la muerte del gran fotógrafo, en 1989. De eso habla este espléndido libro de memorias, de la vida en común de estos artistas, los dos entusiastas y apasionados, que cruzaron a grandes pasos la periferia de Nueva York para llegar hasta el centro neurálgico del nuevo arte.

So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Story
After their mother passes, three estranged siblings reunite to sort out her estate. Beth, the oldest, never left home. She stayed with her mom, caring for her until the very end. Nicole, the middle child, has been kept at arm’s length due to her ongoing battle with a serious drug addiction. Michael, the youngest, lives out of state and hasn’t been back to their small Wisconsin town since their father ran out on them seven years before.
