She does it with dazzling technical prowess, a perfect pitch for orality, and a neurosurgeon?s precision for cruelty. Paradais is a short inexorable descent into Hell.? ?Mariana Enr?quezIn a luxurious residential complex, two outcast teenagers sneak at night to get drunk and share their outrageous fantasies. Franco Andrade, a fat and lonely porn addict, dreams of seducing his next-door neighbor, an attractive wife and mother for whom he has developed an unwholesome obsession. Polo, his reluctant sidekick, fantasizes about quitting his back-breaking job as a gardener in this exclusive complex and running away from home, leaving their narco-infested town and his overbearing mother?s grip behind. Faced with the impossibility of getting what they both believe they deserve; Franco and Polo will come up with a plan that is every bit as childish as it is macabre.Written by Fernanda Melchor, one of the most outstanding Mexican writers of today, Paradais explores how easily desire can turn into obsession, and then further into violence, all the while describing the alliance between opposite sides of contemporary Mexican society.
