Description

Por la autora de El murmullo de las abejas,una historia desgarradora e inolvidable

Esta novela da cuenta de la impactante historia de Aniceto Mora, el regalado. Hijo de un padre sin escrúpulos en el seno de una familia asolada por la miseria y el resentimiento, Aniceto es abandonado a su suerte: su infancia transcurre entre la pobreza y el desdén de los adultos. A cada vuelta de página, asistimos al vertiginoso despeñamiento de un personaje cuyo destino está marcado por la fatalidad.

Un huracán arrasa la isla de Cozumel dejando a su paso tragedia y desolación en una noche donde emergen los miedos insospechados, los rencores más profundos y las heridas que jamáscicatrizaron. A ritmo galopante y absolutamente impredecible, Huracán nos adentra en el mundo íntimo de una galería de personajes únicos y entrañables.

Metáfora del dolor humano y de una sociedad convulsionada por los prejuicios, la apatía y el egoísmo, Huracán es una novela magistral frente a la cual ningún lector quedará indiferente y que consagra a Sofía Segovia como una de las voces más originales y potentes de su generación.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

By the author of The Murmur of Bees, a devastating and unforgettable story.

The novel recounts the shocking story of Aniceto Mora, the Given. Son of an unscrupulous father, in a family plagued by misery and resentment, Aniceto is abandoned to his fate: his childhood elapses between being poor and disdained by adults. Each turn of the page takes us to the rapid crumbling of a character whose destiny is marked by fatality.
 
A hurricane ravages Cozumel Island, leaving tragedy and desolation in its wake one evening, when the most unimaginable fears, the deepest resentments, and wounds that never healed emerge. Absolutely unpredictable, with a galloping pace, Hurricane takes us into the intimate world of a gallery of unique and endearing characters.
 
Metaphor to human pain and a society convulsed by prejudices, apathy, and selfishness, Hurricane is a masterful novel to which no reader will be left indifferent, and which enshrines Sofía Segovia as one of the most original and powerful voices of her generation.

About the Author

Sofía Segovia nació en Monterrey. Estudió comunicación en la Universidad de Monterrey. Ha escrito guiones de comedia y comedia musical –y colaborado en otros– para el teatro local amateur. Es autora de El murmullo de las abejas (Vintage Español, 2015), novela con la que ha conquistado el aplauso de la crítica y el público. Huracán es el remake de su primera novela, Noche de huracán, publicada por primera vez en 2010. Vive en Monterrey con su esposo, sus hijos y sus tres mascotas. Sin el barullo alegre que logran entre todos, no podría concentrarse para escribir.
