Una selección esencial de la obra de Luis Rafael Sánchez, el escritor puertorriqueño contemporáneo más reconocido internacionalmente.
Esta "antología indócil" de Luis Rafael Sánchez, una figura clave de la literatura latinoamericana, atraviesa el cuento, la novela, la crónica periodística y el teatro de la mano de los profesores Luce López-Baralt y Aníbal González-Pérez.
Como señalan en su iluminadora introducción, además de abarcar la representación artística de la realidad nacional de Puerto Rico, Luis Rafael Sánchez opta por escribir "en puertorriqueño" cuando se lanza a traducir los complejísimos entresijos que conforman la colectividad nacional, colocando en un primer plano a los desposeídos, quienes estrenan en sus textos una "picaresca" entre la tragedia y la comedia, elevando a categoría artística el idiolecto popular de los marginados.
En estos textos, desde cuentos como "Que sabe a paraíso", novelas como La guaracha del macho Camacho, ensayos como "La guagua aérea" o una crónica de rabiosa actualidad sobre Bad Bunny, el lector encontrará razones de sobra para disfrutar.
