SEVEN DOORS. SEVEN SINS. SEVEN VIRTUES THAT DON'T QUITE WORK.
Welcome to 21 Salamanca Street, in Mexico City's Colonia Roma, where every tenant guards a story they would rather keep hidden.An ensemble novel inspired by the seven deadly sins and the seven virtues that, supposedly, counteract them:
Gluttony and Temperance
Pride and Humility
Lust and Chastity
Greed and Charity
Wrath and Patience
Envy and Gratitude
Sloth and Diligence
Seven narrow labels-reminders that the human heart is always vaster and more elusive than the morality that tries to contain it.
With a gaze that can be tender and merciless in the same sentence, Salamanca 21 portrays a contemporary Mexico City-its influencers and its psychoanalysts, its gentrification and its neighborhood watch committees-and that particular species of tenant who spies, judges, and, without knowing it, shares the same uncertainty.
Salamanca 21 is The Human Comedy in a world of 280 characters.
