Description

Cambio de piel indaga en el mito del México prehispánico y en el holocausto europeo a través de la memoria de sus protagonistas.

Un clásico de la actual narrativa en español, por uno de los autores fundamentales de la literatura mexicana contemporánea: Carlos Fuentes.

Cuatro personajes que viajan en automóvil de México a Veracruz se ven obligados a pernoctar en Cholula, donde visitan una pirámide que parece ocultar secretos, y donde aflorarán los más oscuros secretos de cada uno...

El Domingo de Ramos de 1965 cuatro personajes inician un viaje hacia Veracruz y se detienen en Cholula, ciudad de las pirámides aztecas. En el laberinto de sus galerías se internarán las dos parejas, como en un descenso a los infiernos, que concluirá con una tragedia ritual inesperada.

Ficción total en palabras del propio autor, Cambio de piel indaga en el mito del México prehispánico y en el holocausto europeo a través de la memoria de sus protagonistas para decirnos que, en definitiva, todas las violencias son la misma violencia.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

First published in 1968, Carlos Fuentes's controversial novel A Change of Skin tells the story of four persons who drive from Mexico City to Veracruz one Palm Sunday.

The Driver of the car is Franz, an ex-Nazi, and with him is his young Mexican lover Isabel, the talented but failed poet Javier, and his embittered wife, Elizabeth. There is a fifth person as well--the Narrator. Through him we discover that all the characters are searching for some real value in their lives: love for Elizabeth, creating in the case of Javier, experience for Isabel, and redemption for Franz.
