El nuevo libro de Rodrigo Rey Rosa se presenta como una novela, pero se desarrolla en las arenas movedizas entre lo ficticio y lo histórico. Con la forma suelta y aparentemente ligera del diario de apuntes y notas, Rey Rosa elude la novela de personajes, y la narración funciona como un gran fresco histórico o alegoría sobre la represión sanguinaria que ha sufrido Guatemala a lo largo de los últimos siglos.
La certera elección del género le permite acomodar los hechos de su vida personal, contaminada por la violencia de Estado, y combinarlos con una dudosa investigación en un vasto y caótico archivo policial. Esta posibilidad de atacar el mismo problema desde varias perspectivas y en un texto aparentemente libre de toda obligación para con una sola línea argumental también abre camino para dosificar la ambigüedad, que constituye lo más logrado de su novela y que es característica de las ficciones de este extraordinario autor.

About the Author
Rodrigo Rey Rosa nació en Guatemala en 1958. Tras acabar los estudiosen su país, residió en Nueva York y luego en Tánger, Marruecos. Rey Rosa ha traducido al español varios libros de Paul Bowles, y a otros autores como Norman Lewis, Paul Léauteaud y François Augiéras. Vive actualmente en la ciudad de Guatemala. Es autor de una amplia obra literaria, traducida a muchos idiomas. Entre sus títulos más destacados figuran Cárcel de árboles, Que me maten si..., La orilla africana y Caballeriza, publicados todos en Seix Barral. Sobre Rey Rosa se ha dicho: "La prosa de Rey Rosa es metódica y sabia. No desdeña, en algunos momentos, el látigo -o mejor dicho: el chasquido lejano de un látigo que jamás vemos- ni el camuflaje. No es un maestro de la resistencia sino una sombra, una raya que atraviesa veloz el espacio de la normalidad. Su elegancia nunca va en demérito de su precisión. Leerlo es aprender a escribir y también es una invitación al puro placer de dejarse arrastrar por historias siniestras o fantásticas" (Roberto Bolaño)
