Por la autora de El murmullo de las abejas, una historia desgarradora e inolvidable Esta novela da cuenta de la impactante historia de Aniceto Mora, el regalado. Hijo de un padre sin escrúpulos en el seno de una familia asolada por la miseria y el resentimiento, Aniceto es abandonado a su suerte: su infancia transcurre entre la pobreza y el desdén de los adultos. A cada vuelta de página, asistimos al vertiginoso despeñamiento de un personaje cuyo destino está marcado por la fatalidad. Un huracán arrasa la isla de Cozumel dejando a su paso tragedia y desolación en una noche donde emergen los miedos insospechados, los rencores más profundos y las heridas que jamáscicatrizaron. A ritmo galopante y absolutamente impredecible, Huracán nos adentra en el mundo Ãntimo de una galerÃa de personajes únicos y entrañables. Metáfora del dolor humano y de una sociedad convulsionada por los prejuicios, la apatÃa y el egoÃsmo, Huracán es una novela magistral frente a la cual ningún lector quedará indiferente y que consagra a SofÃa Segovia como una de las voces más originales y potentes de su generación. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION By the author of The Murmur of Bees, a devastating and unforgettable story.
The novel recounts the shocking story of Aniceto Mora, the Given. Son of an unscrupulous father, in a family plagued by misery and resentment, Aniceto is abandoned to his fate: his childhood elapses between being poor and disdained by adults. Each turn of the page takes us to the rapid crumbling of a character whose destiny is marked by fatality. A hurricane ravages Cozumel Island, leaving tragedy and desolation in its wake one evening, when the most unimaginable fears, the deepest resentments, and wounds that never healed emerge. Absolutely unpredictable, with a galloping pace, Hurricane takes us into the intimate world of a gallery of unique and endearing characters. Metaphor to human pain and a society convulsed by prejudices, apathy, and selfishness, Hurricane is a masterful novel to which no reader will be left indifferent, and which enshrines SofÃa Segovia as one of the most original and powerful voices of her generation.
