En este deslumbrante libro, Javier Argüello reúne siete cuentos de estirpe fantástica, deudores y renovadores de la tradición fundada por Gógol, Poe, Maupassant o Borges. Dueño de un estilo sutil y eficaz, Argüello nos cuenta historias inquietantes y turbadoras, a veces espeluznantes, hechas con la materia que se extiende tras el fi lo de la realidad.

Cada una de estas siete piezas nos hipnotiza tanto por el bien medido ritmo de su prosa como por el dibujo de los personajes y su trama envolvente y sobrecogedora. En la primera, por ejemplo, Argüello narra las vicisitudes de un hombre que cree que escribe un relato cuando en verdad tan solo es el personaje de otro relato que vive atrapado en la telaraña de la ficción. En otro cuento nos mantendrá en vilo con la increíble y maravillosa historia de un hombre a quien un profesor de astronomía ordena que construya una casa al revés bajo la tierra de su jardín, pues algo horrible está a punto de suceder en el mundo... También podremos asistir a la inaudita confesión de un enchufe, una voz que contará la odisea que le llevó a habitar allí dentro; o a la aventura de un joven que viaja por Europa y se encuentra en Londres con un escritor del siglo XIX que ha pactado con el diablo para viajar al futuro y comprobar así su posible ingreso en la Historia de la Literatura; una pequeña obra maestra sobre la textura del tiempo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Javier Argüello is, without doubt, one of the most intriguing authors writing in Spanish today." -Zenda

This stunning volume includes seven fantastic stories that both recall and reinvent a genre founded by Gogol, Poe, Maupassant and Borges. In his subtle but efficient style, Argüello crafts unsettling, sometimes terrifying tales that test our notion of reality.

Each of the seven pieces captivates the reader with the rhythm of its prose and compelling characters and storylines. These include the dilemma of a man who thinks he is writing a story but is in fact a character in someone else's, trapping him in a web of fiction. We are kept in suspense by the incredible story of a worker hired by an astronomy professor to build an underground house, because something horrible is about to happen to Earth. We hear the voice of a person trapped inside an electrical socket, who describes the odyssey that led him there. A young man traveling around Europe meets a nineteenth-century author who made a pact with the Devil, allowing him to travel forward in time to see if his works have made an impression on literature. In short, this book is a small treasure about the nature and texture of time.

My five-year-old daughter loves these Skechers slip-ins—and she is not easy on her shoes! You can see in the photo, she’s already put plenty of miles on them. They’ve been through the washing machine at least twice and still look great—the bright colors are a big hit with her and they hold up well in the wash. One of the elastic bands on top did come loose, but I was able to fix it quickly with a dab of superglue. She slips them on and off all by herself, which is perfect as we’re still learning to tie laces. All in all, a great purchase for the price—especially since kids grow so fast and put their shoes through a lot!
