Llegaron
La nueva novela de Fernando Vallejo, autor de La Virgen de los sicarios, que ha conquistado a miles de lectores.

Un libro sobre un paraíso perdido en la pluma de uno de los escritores más burlones de la literatura en español.

En las afueras de Medellín, a mitad de camino entre los pueblos de Envigado y Sabaneta y entre naranjos y limoneros, en la falda de una montaña se alzaba la finca de la infancia, está Santa Anita, mirando hacia la carretera. Desde su corredor delantero los abuelos los veían venir. "¡Llegaron!", decían aterrados cuando en la primera curva aparecía el Fordcito atestado de niños, como si fueran la plaga de la langosta.

No. A Santa Anita no la tumbaron ellos, el narrador y sus hermanos: la tumbó el derrumbe de la montaña en que se alzaba, que en una temporada de lluvias se vino abajo y se la llevó. Hoy en que el narrador tiene la edad de los abuelos los días turbios del presente se tiñen de un color azul.

Casablanca la bella
La nueva novela de Fernando VallejoLa lluvia cae sobre Casablanca iracunda, alucinada. Baja el agua por las canoas del techo al patio a trompicones, como llevada de la mano de mi señor Satanás. Quiebra tejas, moja pisos, forma charcos y los charcos lagos. Borbotea de la ira la maldita.

Casablanca no es una ciudad, es una casa: blanca como su nombre lo indica, con puertas y ventanas de color café y una palmera en el centro de un antejardín verde verde. Y así ha sido siempre y así siempre será, incambiada, incambiable, como el loquito de arriba, el que dijo: «Yo soy el que soy». Yo también. Yo soy el que soy.

Reseñas:
«Su ira explosiva es tan brillante, tan sonora, real, sincera, divertida a veces, cruel casi siempre, que su lectura es algo gozoso y tonificante».
Pedro Almodóvar

«Fernando Vallejo es tímido, inteligente, cariñoso, humilde; y también es perturbador, revolucionario, deslenguado, insólito».
Juan Cruz, El País
