Summary:

"Un fantasma viral recorre el mundo y lo contagia sin remedio con el olvido a la vez que lo inmuniza contra toda creencia en el ayer. Y el muy paciente Land -haciendo y deshaciendo memoria- se mueve a lo largo y ancho de su propia historia y de la de quienes rodean y acorralan y jaquean su infancia y adolescencia y madurez a los largo y ancho de tres Grandes Ciudades. Bienvenidos -de todo corazón- al REC y al REW y al PLAY sin STOP de libros a robar o abandonar o destruir, de fiestas hipnóticas y de funerales en trance, de padres insomnes que sólo quieren ser mejores amigos y de <<hijos de... >>que sólo sueñan con poder dormir un poco, de Big Vaina y de Nome, de amores que no matan ni mueren sino que se inmortalizan, de escritores fantasmas y de lectores poco confiables, y de verdades y mentiras y secretos escritas o corregidas en azul y rojo" -- Provided by publisher.

"'A period novel, a love story, a story of initiation, a psychological novel, a political novel, a novel about fathers and sons, a novel about creating readers and not writers, a sad novel that brings joy, a joyful novel that brings sadness. I'd say thank you, but that isn't enough. I'll say it anyway: Thank you for writing this. It will stay with me for a long time.' - Leila Guerriero. A virus is spreading around the world, causing people to forget everything and lose all belief in yesterday. Through it all, Land - making and unmaking memories - moves through his own story and those of the people around him, hacking their childhood, adolescence and adulthood across three Great Cities. Welcome to REC, REW and PLAY without STOP; books stolen, abandoned or destroyed; hypnotic parties and trance-like funerals; sleepless parents who want to be their children's best friends and children who dream only of being able to sleep; Big Vaina and Nome; love affairs that don't kill or die but instead are immortalized forever; ghostly writers and untrustworthy readers; and truths, lies and secrets written or corrected in blue and red" -- English description provided by publisher.
