«Para quien se pregunte qué sucede en la Ciudad de México cuando cerramos las puertas con intención de descansar, Sismo entre simulacros puede aventurar algunas respuestas: venganzas, homicidios, secuestros, negocios sucios, amores despechados, adolescentes tratando de escalar en la pirámide del crimen. Con una prosa fluida y precisa, con destellos de oscura poesÃa, Gabriel RodrÃguez Liceaganos muestra la otra cara de una ciudad donde la vida reverbera sin horarios y sólo se detiene con el estallido de la violencia. -Eduardo Antonio Parra
El metro se desplomó en Ciudad de México. Un tramo del puente elevado se vino abajo con vagones y pasajeros; esa tarde de caos y tragedia, muchas otras historias confluÃan, comenzaban.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION For anyone who asks what goes on in Mexico City when we close our doors at night, Earthquake Drills offers a few possible answers: revenge, murder, kidnapping, shady business deals, illicit love affairs, teenagers being recruited into organized crime. Writing fluidly and precisely, with darkly poetic overtones, Gabriel RodrÃguez Liceaganos reveals the hidden face of a city in constant motion that stops only for the latest explosion of violence. -Eduardo Antonio Parra There's been an accident in the Mexico City metro. An elevated track has collapsed, crowded cars and all. Amid the chaos and tragedy, other stories begin or converge. Divided into three parts, this dazzling and engrossing novel tells the Uber Eats Love Story of Berenice and Memorias, young lovers navigating the cartel-dominated streets to deliver takeout orders. Everything in Them Cries introduces us to Miguel, whose home was destroyed in the metro collapse and whose bitter testimony has gone viral in the media and online. In part three, No One's Heart Beats for Me Tonight, friends León and DarÃo retrieve bicycles rented through an app service and left abandoned on the street. They are two adults trapped in an eternal childhood.
