ENGLISH DESCRIPTION This work recreates the collective drama of migration in a space spoiled by misery and the morality of those who inhabit it, but also a space that gives rise to an enigmatic story of unexpected love. Epitafio and Estela are members of a criminal organization involved in human trafficking. Their victims are generally Central American migrants who enter the Mexican territory in their eagerness to reach better living conditions in the United States, without ever imagining that they will come across a diabolical customs department marked by violence, hatred, and mean-spirited interests. The story of unrequited love between the protagonists seems to portend the possibility of their absolution, but this notion is ally thwarted when the leader of their group, a heartless priest, decides to get rid of them and lays a trap destined to eliminate them. The new novel by Emiliano Monge, winner of the 2012 Jaen Prize (Spain), is a ruthless look at a horrific world, narrated with incomparable literary mastery.Number of Pages: 320 Genre: Fiction + Literature Genres Sub-Genre: Hispanic & Latino Format: Paperback Publisher: Literatura Random House Author: Emiliano Monge Language: Spanish Estimated shipping dimensions: 5.3INCH X 9.0INCH X 1.0INCH DPCI : 248-07-9396 UPC : 9786073132435 TCIN : 50461420 Estimated shippimg weight: 0.8POUND
