Resale

It all begins with the scent of a predator and the unshakable feeling that the true danger wears a human face. In the shadowy heart of Victorian London, where propriety cloaks secrets and danger wears a gentleman’s face, Drusilla Cox lives a double life: ostensibly a maid in the chaotic household of Sherlock Holmes, but in truth something far more elusive and far more dangerous. When Holmes receives an unsettling visit from a veiled young woman convinced she will share her sister’s fatal fate, he dispatches Drusilla to the crumbling estate of Stoke Moran, where grief, greed and something monstrous intertwine.…

Fiasco es un libro de poesía amorosa y desamorosa, de abandono y regocijo. Este libro es, en realidad, una retahíla de sobrevivientes que hablan sobre la supervivencia de la experiencia amorosa.

El origen de los poemas aquí formados son tan variados como sus fechas de creación, un lapso que se expande desde 1996 hasta 2015 y han sido escogidos por el azar y la suerte. Son textos, todos, que en algún momento estuvieron perdidos y al final fueron rescatados.

Pero además de la suerte de haber sido salvados, los une la exploración de la idea del fracaso en la conquista amorosa, aunque no desde una visión melodramática, sino con el filo de la ironía (aunque el otro lado de la ironía siempre sea la mellada condescendencia del melodrama).

Una diseñadora de modas proveniente de una prominente familia de políticos se deja seducir por un cliente que irrumpe con su personalidad los deseos más ocultos, el corazón de la moda en la ciudad de México y los oleajes de un incitante Tepic Nayarit son algunos ingredientes de estos acuerdos que quedaran vibrando en las entrañas de los lectores
