Siva's heaven

Desde su cama de hospital en Cuernavaca, México, B, fundador de Médicos Sin Fronteras, agoniza, víctima del Síndrome de Korsakoff, una extraña encelopatía que lo arrastra al olvido, contra el que B lucha con desesperación tratando de llenar los vacíos de su mente con historias que está convencido sucedieron.

Chanel

Arthur, director de una empresa proveedora de la industria perfumera, recibe en su departamento a Vanesa, una antigua amante que le había dejado cinco años atrás para casarse con un banquero francés, porque pese a lo sobado que parezca todavía hay mujeres que sueñan con uno.

Enemigos. Guerra Civil en México

México vive desde hace muchos años una guerra civil. Una que ocurre a la luz del día en prácticamente todo el territorio nacional, de la que los medios dan cuenta todos los días y en la que el objetivo de los bandos enfrentados somos los ciudadanos.

Pero está ahí, a la vista de todos, con sus cientos de miles de muertos, con sus centenas de miles de desaparecidos. El presente libro busca recuperar y dar sentido a la información que se publica en desorden cada día. La mirada es la de un periodista que sistematiza en un discurso coherente la v...
