What happens when the world you've built on credit, the narrative of hustle, and sheer denial comes crashing down?
La burbuja que habito is a sharp and poignant satire about Julián Pereyra, an upper-middle-class young man who lives in Palermo, works for a multinational, and believes he's earned everything he has through his own merit. Until he gets fired. Until his credit card is maxed out. Until the rent is choking him. And then, reality-the one he never wanted to see-begins to seep through the cracks.
Told with irony, subtle humor, and a critical eye on Argentine society, this novel dismantles the myths of meritocracy, consumerism as identity, and modern individualism.
A story about downfalls, contradictions, and authentic new beginnings.
If you enjoy novels with flawed characters, sharp social commentary, and witty prose that balances heart with sarcasm, this book is for you.
Perfect for readers of Osvaldo Soriano, Pedro Mairal, and Mariana EnrÃquez.
