Paperback. Condition: Good. «Mañana la vida será la misma para millones de personas, pero para mí cambiará radicalmente. Me transformaré en padre [. ] Ahora, en esta antesala paralizante, veo la paternidad coma un traje de gala que no sé si ya traigo puesto o recién voy a probarme, pero que no me quitaré más, aunque me quede apretado o largo».   Para un escritor obsesionado con la paternidad, la noche en la que su esposa le confiesa que ambos serán padres, todo lo que ha sido literatura y psicoanálisis se convierte en pulso y latido.   ¿De qué sirven las palabras, la memoria y la imaginación ante las bellas formas que dibuja la primera ecografía? ¿Cuán inútil ha sido revisitar las historias de abuelas y patriarcas cuando la maternidad se muestra, sin aspavientos, moralmente superior? ¿Y qué consecuencias tendrán en el matrimonio los nuevos roles que él y su esposa deberán asumir, obligados a la felicidad y quizás incapaces de ella?   Escrito con urgencia emocional y gran destreza narrativa, Algún día te mostrare el desierto es el diario de paternidad de Renato Cisneros, pero también una larga carta de amor que se abre paso entre los claroscuros de la inseguridad y las sombras de la depresión para confesar una verdad: el mundo, vasto y luminoso, puede ser también un laberinto árido del que a veces es imposible salir.    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION   "Tomorrow life will be the same for millions of people, but for me it will radically change. I will become a father [.] Now, in this waiting room, I see fatherhood as a tuxedo that I don't know if I already have on or if I'm about to try on, but that I will never take off, even if it's too small or too big."   For a writer obsessed with fatherhood, the night his wife confesses that they will be parents, everything that has been literary and psychoanalysis becomes pulse and heartbeat.   What use are words, memory, and imagination when faced with the beautiful shapes that the first ultrasound draws? How useless has it been to revisit the stories of grandfathers and patriarchs when motherhood shows itself, without fuss, to be morally superior? And what effects will the new roles that he and his wife must assume have on their marriage, forced into happiness or perhaps incapable of it?   Written with emotional urgency and great narrative skill, One Day I'll Show You The Desert, is a diary of Renato Cisneros' fatherhood, but also a long love letter that makes its way between the chiaroscuro of insecurity and the shadows of depression to confess a truth: the world, vast and luminous, can also be an arid labyrinth from which it is sometimes impossible to leave.".…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Vuelve con una novela sobre el amor y la guerra el autor de La distancia que nos separa, ganadora del English PEN Award, finalista del Premio Médicis y de la Bienal de Novela Mario Vargas Llosa. «Es aberrante el modo en que uno se acostumbra a coexistir con la degradación: la ves a diario, te parece normal, a veces incluso la justificas. La guerra hace que lo repugnante se vuelva adecuado, ¿hay algo más inhumano que eso?».   Un periodista peruano regresa a España dispuesto a rehacer su vida tras separarse de su mujer. Varias décadas antes, otro peruano, Matías Guirato Roeder, se encuentra en una situación similar: abandona su país para irse a Estados Unidos y experimenta los rigores de la migración y el horror de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. La experiencia civil y la aventura épica se complementan así en esta vibrante novela en cuya trama restallan los perturbadores efectos del amor, la locura, la política y la guerra.   Dotada de una prosa trepidante que traslada al lector al vértigo y la crudeza de un campo de batalla, El mundo que vimos arder constituye tanto un registro bélico impactante como una reflexión sobre la identidad y el desarraigo en un tiempo en el que todo parece estar a punto de estallar o desaparecer. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A novel about love and war by the author of The Distance Between Us, winner of the English PEN Prize and a finalist for the Prix Médicis and Mario Vargas Llosa Biennial Award.   A Peruvian journalist returns to Spain to put his life together after separating from his wife. A few decades earlier, another Peruvian, Matías Guirato Roeder, finds himself in a similar situation: He leaves home to study in the United States, only to experience the challenges of immigration and the horror of the Second World War. Everyday life and epic adventure meet in this vibrant novel, whose plot reverberates with the echoes of love, insanity, politics and war.   Written in a vertiginous prose that transports the reader to the crudeness and confusion of the battlefield, The World We Saw Burn is as much a powerful war chronicle as a reflection on identity and heartbreak in times when everything seems on the verge of exploding or disappearing.…
