Ascópolis
by José Ángel Balmori
Description
Ascópolis turns the most tragic stories into absurdities and scenes of endless laughter. The grotesque and the gore, the cheesy and the dirty are its specialties. He prefers scoundrels to heroes. "Ascópolis" has no moral sense, no scruples. It wants to make people laugh more than presenting a great reflection. They are visceral short stories with unrelenting honesty that might annoy anyone.

Reviews
"His style is arrogant and many would say that his stories are excessively vulgar. But, the truth is that he has the shrewd intelligence of a fox and the total cruelty of a jackal. So far he has worked following his main motto: "minimum effort and maximum results. (...)The 19 stories gathered in this book were written from a total indifference. This is not the place to ask for forgiveness for your sins. Not even the best armor can avoid being splattered with a bold and biting black humor”. Moises Castillo
