«Considerada una de las figuras m s fascinantes de una nueva generaci n de autores latinoamericanos, Boullosa justifica los elogios con la riqueza de su obra .-
Publishers Weekly

En esta segunda recopilaci n, Carmen Boullosa, una de las voces m s importantes de la nueva ficci n de Am rica Latina, abandona «la seguridad del jard n de la infancia --en palabras de Christopher Dom nguez Michael-- y se interna en el universo de lo imaginario. Un territorio donde la Historia --de la ind mita Am rica colonial en Duerme y Son vacas, somos puercos, al Viejo Mundo de La otra mano de Lepanto; de la Europa renacentista en La virgen y el viol n, a la Rusia donde inminentemente estallar la revoluci n de El libro de Ana-- y sus personajes ceden a la posibilidad de ser recreados y adaptados al mundo improbable de la ficci n, como un recurso para reinventar la realidad y comprender lo que realmente significa ser y estar en la piel de otros. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
"Regarded as one of the most dazzling of Latin America's new generation, Boullosa justifies her laurels in this rich work." -Publishers Weekly
In this second compilation, Carmen Boullosa, one of the most important voices of Latin America's new fiction, leaves behind "the safety of her childhood garden" - as stated by Christopher Dominguez Michael - and enters the universe of the imaginary.
A landscape where history and its characters yield to the possibility of being recreated and adapted into a world of fiction: from the indomitable colonial America in Duerme / Sleep and Son vacas, somos puercos / They're Cows, We're Pigs; to the Old World in La otra mano de Lepanto / Lepanto's Other Hand; from the Renaissance Europe in La virgen y el viol n / The Virgin and the Violin; to the Russia where the revolution in El libro de Ana / Ana's Book imminently starts; these characters are ultimately used as resources to reinvent reality and understand what it really means to stand in other people's shoes.
