- Summary:
- "We are faced with a set of microfictions about a melancholic and hopeless man who arrives at a cafeteria and begins to narrate stories out loud, while completing a crossword puzzle. At the beginning of the book there is a blank crossword puzzle. At the top of each text, the empty boxes of the letters that correspond to the title are shown. The book proposes that readers solve the mystery of each title based on the clues offered by its pages (the answers appear at the end, in the index). Each minifiction poses paradoxes and absurd situations to reflect on human existence, the double, the truth or the relationship between God and human beings, in a playful exercise of reading and experimentation with narrative forms, and a good dose of irony. and carefree."-- Publisher information.
