With her signature humor and compassion, A.M. Homes exposes the heart of an uneasy America in her new collection - exploring our attachments to each other through characters who aren't quite who they hoped to become, though there is no one else they can be. / Tensiones familiares; crisis de pareja; personajes desnortados; el apasionado encuentro de una novelista transgresora y un corresponsal de guerra en un congreso sobre genocidios; un chat en el que asoma una historia de abusos sexuales a una menor; una jornada de compras en un supermercado que acaba con una candidatura a la presidencia de Estados Unidos... A. M. Ho- mes, pertrechada con a?lado estilete, humor ácido y mirada implacable, retrata –o más bien disecciona– la sociedad norteamericana contemporánea. Por las páginas de este volumen des?lan el consumismo, el sexo, la desolación, los secretos inconfesables, las crisis personales, el absurdo cotidiano, los escaparates de felicidad tras los que se agazapan las más sórdidas miserias... Algunos de los cuentos aquí reunidos son demoledores, otros desternillantes, todos de una lacerante lucidez.
