        Juego de historias

        by CONRADO BOCCO

        Tejo es un entrelazado de tres historias presentadas con una literatura versátil. Cada una de ellas es dominada con un tono literario diferente. Es una novela conceptual en la que el autor juega con las letras, hechos y personajes desde la tapa hasta el Fin. El lector podrá ir saltando por los relatos o elegir solo uno de ellos. La historia de Adriano es divertida, juvenil; la de Camila es familiar y también histórica, de dramas y misterios, enclavada en la Argentina del 70. La de Extensísima de Los Milagros es un viaje a un tiempo desconocido, para descubrir los sucesos que vivió una civilización de nuestra Patagonia. A través de su mensaje,interpela a la sociedad actual. Tejo es una propuesta diferente, de la mano de una escritura ocurrente, profunda y emocionante, donde todos los hechos se conectan muy cerca del punto final.

        by Martín Lombardo

        Once upon a time… the Tell universe, a universe that is presented to us in multiple intertwined dimensions, and in which the characters intersect in paths of thought and action. In a transition between written language and visual language, the novel reconstructs the relationship between life and art, so that the action breaks down into reality and warns us that we live in it. On the one hand, we are introduced to a 60 years-old filmmaker who revisits his life. Despite not having the last name Tell, he wonders if he is a descendant of the mythical Swiss hero, William Tell. On the other hand, there is a young man trying to piece together an endless puzzle in which, in exchange for a fee, he finds himself aroused by his own desires. And also, there is a mysterious feminine presence around which all stories are forged, as the origin and end of the real and the mythical. Read, see, and dare to ask yourself: Am I a Tell?
