Un hilo trágico une el destino de las cinco personas que tienen voz en esta hipnótica novela. Agustina es una actriz trans que lleva demasiado tiempo encadenando proyectos fallidos y cuya capacidad de amar es tan grande como su voraz deseo de venganza. Verónica es una aplicada guionista televisiva que ve cómo se le escapa de las manos el talento que creyó poseer. Matthew es un hombre simple cuyo matrimonio se desmorona por culpa de sus obsesiones cada vez más desaforadas. Paula es una genial escritora secreta devorada por su propia obra, que atesora en un viejo laptop sin procesador de textos. Juan, pareja de Agustina y en su día rutilante artista conceptual, desconoce que lo van a asesinar en las afueras de Nueva York. Bum bum bum es una historia visceral y extrema,...
es una historia visceral y extrema, coral y elíptica, llena de anhelos y violencia, habitada por personajes desorbitados que se preguntan dolorosamente quién son. Un libro, en definitiva, desbordado de vida y pasión, pero también de mugre y soledad.
A tragic thread links the fate of five people, each with a voice of their own, in this hypnotic novel. Agustina is a trans actress who has long been stringing a line of unsuccessful projects, and whose capacity for love is as big as her fierce desire for vengeance. Verónica is a hard-working Tv screenwriter that watches the talent she once thought she had slipping through her fingers. Matthew is a simple man, whose marriage is falling apart because of his ever-more-uncontrolled obsessions. Paula is a wonderful secret writer, devoured by her own work, which she treasures in an old laptop that doesn’t have a word processor. Juan, Agustina’s partner, and once a shining concept artist, is unaware he is about to be murdered on the outskirts of New York.
is a visceral and extreme story, choral and elliptical, full of yearning and violence, inhabited by larger-than-life characters that painfully wonder who they are. Definitely a book overflowing with life and passion, but also filth and loneliness.
