Los cuentos de Bolao condensan en el breve espacio que caracteriza las obras del gnero todo su universo literario, uno de los ms rupturistas y personales de la literatura contempornea en espaol: la literatura que lo impregna todo; la sexualidad; las vidas de seres que pese a ser comunes, transcurren entre lo cotidiano y lo extraordinario; la rebelda de aquellos que viven en la estrecha frontera que separa el sistema de la marginalidad; el viaje como huida pero tambin como forma de vida; la necesidad desevelar lo incierto; la juventud; la violencia y las tramas policiales; el arte como obsesin, y la bsqueda continuada de un espacio propio en un lugar ajeno. Pertenencientes a los ttulos Putas asesinas, El gaucho insufrible, Llamadas telefnicas y El secreto del mal, y escritas durante toda su vida, las piezas narrativas que componen este libro se enriquecen y adquieren un significado diferente en el dilogo que establecen entre ellas. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION In the brief space of his short stories, Bolao manages to condense his entire literary universe, one of the most disruptive and personal of contemporary Spanish literature: the literature that permeates everything; sexuality; the lives of characters that despite being common, live amongst the everyday and the extraordinary; the rebellion of those who live on the narrow border that separates the system from marginality; travel as an escape but also as a way of life; the need to reveal the uncertain; youth; violence and police plots; art as an obsession, and the continued search for one's own space in a foreign place. Belonging to the collections: Murdering Whores, The Insufferable Gaucho, Last Evenings on Earth, and The Secret of Evil, the pieces that make up this book become more enriched and acquire a different meaning as they establish a dialogue amongst them.
