Summary note
No voy a pedirle a nadie que me crea, nos advierten con frecuencia los distintos narradores y personajes de esta historia, en la que lo corriente se transforma en un delirio sin que uno sepa muy bien cómo, en la que lo raro acaba siendo normal y en la que no podemos hacer otra cosa que reírnos, porque todo es hilarante, cotidiano y surrealista a la vez, como la vida misma. Todo empieza con un primo que ya de chico apuntaba maneras de estafador, y que ahora mete al protagonista- un mexicano que viaja a Barcelona acompan̋ado de su novia para estudiar literaturea, y que además se liama como el autor de la novela- en un lio monumental: un negocio de alto nivel que convierte su estancia en la ciudad en una especie de novela negra de humor tambien negro, una de esas que ael le gustaria escribir.
"No voy a pedirle a nadie que me crea", the different narrators and characters of this story often warn us, in which the ordinary becomes a delusion without one knowing very well how, in which the strange ends up being normal and in which we can't do anything but laugh, because everything is hilarious, everyday and surreal at the same time, like life itself. It all starts with a cousin who, as a boy, pointed out ways of being a scammer, and who now puts the protagonist - a Mexican who travels to Barcelona accompanied by his girlfriend to study literature, and who also calls himself the author of the novel - in a monumental mess: a high-level business that turns your stay in the city into a kind of black novel with black humor, one of those that he would like to write.--back cover.
