About
Veinticinco años después de protagonizar una gamberrada que marcará el transcurso de la vida de un grupo de amigos, el narrador sin nombre de esta novela recibe un mensaje de Simón, un miembro de la pandilla que desapareció un buen día sin dejar rastro, con una propuesta inesperada: ¿por qué no escribes sobre nosotros?, ¿sobre lo que nos sucedió? Como una falsa novela de detectives, Trigo limpio sigue los pasos de un escritor dispuesto a cualquier cosa para darle forma a la novela perfecta mientras investiga sobre un pasado que poco se parece a lo que recuerda de su infancia perdida en un barrio periférico. Un juego literario en el que el lector está invitado a conectar las piezas de un hábil rompecabezas. Armado con un inteligente sentido del humor y dispuesto a saltarse todas las fronteras entre la realidad y la ficción, Juan Manuel Gil ha obtenido el Premio Biblioteca Breve 2021 con este lúcido homenaje al poder universal de contar historias y al refugio que supone la lectura. Twenty-five years after starring in a gamberrada that will mark the course of the life of a group of friends, the nameless narrator of this novel receives a message from Simón, a member of the gang who disappeared one fine day without leaving a trace, with an unexpected proposal: why don't you write about us? About what happened to us? Like a fake detective novel, Clean Wheat follows in the footsteps of a writer willing to do anything to shape the perfect novel while investigating a past that hardly resembles what he remembers from his childhood lost in a suburb. A literary game in which the reader is invited to connect the pieces of a clever puzzle. Armed with an intelligent sense of humor and willing to jump all the boundaries between reality and fiction, Juan Manuel Gil has won the Short Library Award 2021 with this lucid tribute to the universal power of storytelling and the refuge that reading implies.
