Descripción
BUE is the city of Buenos Aires made literature, a novel that, because of the defiant narrative of an author capable of powerfully synthesizing the world we live in, becomes an absolute triumph.
There is nothing more unique or more diverse than a city. In each city, millions and millions of people cross paths, look at each other, rub against each other, leave each other behind. We are accustomed to seeing our lives unfold among multitudes of strangers, to whom we are, all the while, neighbors, compatriots, victims, executioners, companions in hope and in frustration. Along with them we build and share the style of our city, those features that set her apart from all other cities. BUE reflects this diversity: its pages are traversed by dozens of characters, situations, cultures, spaces, voices that ensemble the fresco, overflowing with life, of the past century in one of the most amazing and amazed cities in the Western world.
