Imagine el lector que sale de su casa, dentro de su cartera o bolso lleva este pequeño libro, pero sin saberlo está cargando uno de los museos contemporáneos más completos del mundo, el verdadero museo callejero, donde lo social y sus complejas intersecciones son las diversas muestras y exposiciones que inauguran este mes. En sus salas podrá encontrar a una prostituta enamorada de un cliente matricida, a un fiscal morboso, a un poeta inmantado por un ángel, a un ex soldado caníbal, a un anciano obsesionado con su requinto, a un nostálgico muchacho con complejo de Edipo, a un joven desencantado y abandonado hasta por su propio cuerpo y madre, a un borracho flaneur, a un guardia de seguridad obnubilado por el poder de la pólvora, a una esposa que huye de su instinto asesino... Tenga cuidado el lector: el museo abre cuando usted lo disponga, pero nadie puede garantizarle un horario de cierre y mucho menos una salida de emergencia. En este su primer libro de narrativa publicado, Santiago Vizcaíno demuestra la ductilidad de los buenos escritores latinoamericanos, aquellos que saben moverse entre géneros mayores sin claudicar ni abandonar en ninguno de ellos lo vital de su arte: la necesidad de transmitir y volcar al juego universal un punto de vista y una toma de posición. Imagine that you step out of your front door with this small volume tucked into your pocket or handbag. Unknowingly, you are carrying with you a veritable contemporary museum, a street exhibition that mixes modern Latin American culture with influences from throughout the world and throughout history. In these stories, the grotesque comedy of human nature and the human condition, in all its grandeur and grand fallibility, comprise the diverse exhibits on display: a hooker in love with her assassin client, a poet possessed by the divine spirit, a grandfather obsessed with his requinto, a nostalgic son unable to let go of the twisted fascination of his childhood home, a disillusioned young writer abandoned by the world and by his own body, a security guard drunk on the power of a new gun, a trapped wife fleeing from her deadly instincts... In his first published book of short stories, Santiago Vizcaíno demonstrates the trademark versatility of good Latin American authors: a knowledge of how to deftly shift between genres while maintaining a voice that is focused, unique and utterly compelling.
