Historia de un amor imposible, {Las batallas en el desierto} es una magistral novela breve que involucra otros aspectos como la corrupcion social y politica, el inicio del Mexico moderno y la desaparicion del pais tradicional, y el rescate de las memorias individuales y colectivas de una ciudad a la que Jose Emilio Pacheco ama profundamente, pero recrea sin nostalgia y denuncia de manera implacable. Desde su aparicion, esta novela corta, traducida a varios idiomas y publicada en otras partes del mundo hispano, asombro por su aparente sencillez y la estructura compleja que tiende lazos para una variedad de lecturas multiples y diferentes, y para una complicidad que hermana para siempre al lector con el autor.
