Synopsis "Visita a Un Extraño (in Spanish)"

The story of a thoroughly modern man, this novel narrates the life of a character that scrapes by thanks to random occupations--writing the horoscope for a women's magazine, playing online poker, freelancing for an ad agency--while interacting with a series of fellow drifters. In this celebration of living a life of arrested development, of the company of myths, and of the possibility of impromptu getaways, disillusionment never fully obscures joie de vivre. Everyday philosophy finds truth in the most miniscule and common of things, and reality often becomes a caricature thanks to both humor and sadness. A book of illuminations about lost identity and a world rediscovered within a room, this roman à clef explores the uncertainty that ends up becoming a collection of the many certainties that accompany people during their collapses. La historia de un hombre completamente moderno, esta novela narra la vida de un personaje que sobrevive gracias a extrañas ocupaciones--el horóscopo de una revista femenina, el póquer virtual, los encargos de una agencia de publicidad--al tiempo que se relaciona con otra serie de personajes también a la deriva. En esta celebración de una vida cultivando la infancia, de la compañía de los mitos y de la posibilidad de la escapada, el desengaño nunca logra imponerse totalmente sobre la felicidad de vivir. La filosofía de lo cotidiano encuentra verdades en las cosas más minúsculas y comunes, y la realidad se convierte muchas veces en caricatura gracias tanto al humor como a la tristeza. Un libro de iluminaciones sobre la identidad perdida y el mundo reencontrado en una habitación, este roman à clef explora la incertidumbre que acaba convirtiéndose en un inventario de las muchas certezas que acompañan al individuo durante la caída.
