Fiction
La muerte viene estilando (Death comes dripping)
by Andrés Montero
Description
Staying in the middle of the Chilean countryside is also entangled in its mythology. Opening this book is what it is: escaping everyday anguish to unleash into an anachronistic, unknown world.
The lands of Las Nalcas, the bosses and their children, trappers, crows, fishermen, bandits and old people who still play the trick before they leave. His stories, crossed through all the stories, under the mantle of a liquid prose as fluid as refreshing, run without forms, without predestinations, but with a unique meaning. The truth is that death, like rain, will always fall.
After publishing the novels Tony Ninguno and Taguada, Chilean narrator Andrés Montero, winner of the 2017 Ibero-American Novel Prize of Mexico City Elena Poniatowska, continues to deepen from literature into oral tradition and the ghosts waiting away from the urban fabric and offices.
