Un fantasma viral recorre el mundo y lo contagia sin remedio con el olvido a la vez que lo inmuniza contra toda creencia en el ayer. Y el muy paciente Land -haciendo y deshaciendo memoria- se mueve a lo largo y ancho de su propia historia y de la de quienes rodean y acorralan y jaquean su infancia y adolescencia y madurez a los largo y ancho de tres Grandes Ciudades.
Bienvenidos -de todo corazón- al REC y al REW y al PLAY sin STOP de libros a robar o abandonar o destruir, de fiestas hipnóticas y de funerales en trance, de padres insomnes que sólo quieren ser mejores amigos y de «hijos de...» que sólo sueñan con poder dormir un poco, de Big Vaina y de Nome, de amores que no matan ni mueren sino que se inmortalizan, de escritores fantasmas y de lectores poco confiables, y de verdades y mentiras y secretos escritas o corregidas en azul y rojo.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
"A period novel, a love story, a story of initiation, a psychological novel, a political novel, a novel about fathers and sons, a novel about creating readers and not writers, a sad novel that brings joy, a joyful novel that brings sadness. I'd say thank you, but that isn't enough. I'll say it anyway: Thank you for writing this. It will stay with me for a long time." - Leila Guerriero
A virus is spreading around the world, causing people to forget everything and lose all belief in yesterday. Through it all, Land - making and unmaking memories - moves through his own story and those of the people around him, hacking their childhood, adolescence and adulthood across three Great Cities.
Welcome to REC, REW and PLAY without STOP; books stolen, abandoned or destroyed; hypnotic parties and trance-like funerals; sleepless parents who want to be their children's best friends and children who dream only of being able to sleep; Big Vaina and Nome; love affairs that don't kill or die but instead are immortalized forever; ghostly writers and untrustworthy readers; and truths, lies and secrets written or corrected in blue and red.

Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
