Review:
Excelent book. Along with "Heroes" and "Lo Peor de todo" (Worst of All) this book shows the best of hispanamerican new literature.
The story is most fun, very watchable...in your head you see what's happenning, and you can't stop the reading till you get to the end....A must!
Recently Loriga has directed his own film version of the book, with Christina Rosenvinge, and with music by Sonic Youth and Christina.
If you liked him maybe you should also check Fuguet "Bad Vibes" (available on Amazon)

Summary: la síntesis descarnada
Review: Loriga muestra como se puede hacer literatura sin llenar páginas, pero por sobre todo, se da el gusto de pasar su libro a film, dirigirlo y cambiar partes de la historia, por ejemplo una madre tonta a una refilosa o un final lleno de público y policías a una playa solitaria. Loriga presenta con su road movie y su libro un mundo de realidad descarnada. Una historia adolescente de todos los días. Importante

Summary: One of the greatest writters of Spain "LTV"
Review: Well, the literature have changed, an ray Loriga is part of that changes, LIterature TeleVision (LTV). Specially on this book a "road" story the humor make us feel angry and at the same time, happy; sometimes like we have dead feelings and with some of the Loriga's words you put them alive.
