«Pocos novelistas que escriben en mi lengua me producen tanta admiración como Jorge Franco».
Almudena Grandes
«Este es uno de los autores colombianos a quien me gustaría pasarle la antorcha».
Gabriel García Márquez
«Él, que había caminado media vida en el puro filo de una navaja, identificó ya en su niño la irremediable vocación al extravío». La explosión de una bomba y la desaparición de un niño trenzarán de manera ineludible el drama de los protagonistas de El vacío en el que flotas, y entonces seremos testigos --en este juego de ficciones en el que una historia parece desarrollarse dentro de otra, como en un set de muñecas rusas-- de tres relatos que comparten un mismo personaje. En el primero, una joven pareja pierde a su hijo pequeño en un atentado terrorista: la madre sobrevive, pero del niño no queda ningún rastro. En el segundo, un joven y desconocido escritor gana un importante premio literario: ahora disfruta y padece la fama lejos del hombre que lo crio, un ser enigmático pero lleno de compasión y ternura, una especie de artista de la noche que, ataviado de mujer, siempre aspiró a dedicarse a cantar en su propio cabaré. Y en el tercero, aquel hombre que se busca la vida, y a veces se viste de mujer, de repente llega a su pensión con un niño perdido: explica que los padres del pequeño murieron en un accidente y que él debe cuidarlo, porque es su única familia. Así, las tres historias se van entrecruzando, emergiendo unas de otras, para provocar una lectura intensa e llena de intriga que se pregunta por aquellos que nos dejan con el peso de su ausencia. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Three lives. A single story.
An intimate and exciting novel about family, loss and new opportunities, by the winner of the Alfaguara Prize.
"After spending half his life on the razor's edge, he detecting in this boy an irremediable pull toward vanishing." A bomb goes off and a child disappears, inextricably linking the lives of the protagonists of The Void in Which You Float. In this artful novel, stories develop one within the other like a set of Russian dolls, with a single character at their center. In the first plot, a young couple loses a child in a terrorist attack. The mother survives, but no trace is found of her son. In the second, an obscure young writer wins a prestigious literary award, navigating the ups and downs of fame far from the man who raised him - an enigmatic figure who nevertheless is full of tenderness and compassion, a would-be artist of the night who dresses as a woman and dreams of singing in his own cabaret. The third story features this same man, an occasional crossdresser struggling to make a living, who comes home to his rented room one day with a lost child, explaining that the parents died in an accident and, as the only living relative, he must take care of the boy. The three stories intertwine, growing one from another into an intense narrative haunted by those who leave us with the burden of their absence.

Waste of money
Color: Orange
So much for indestructible, it wasn’t in my home five minutes before the leg came off. No exaggeration! Dixy had the toy in her mouth and I reached up to wiggle it and the leg came off in my hand and no Dixy wasn’t pulling away. I only purchased this toy because it claimed to be indestructible. After shipping and handling it cost me $30. I justified the cost because I thought it would be worth it for Dixy to have a toy that would last. Isn’t that the impression you get by the discrimination “indestructible” To add insult to injury this company sent a second one for another $30 and it really ticks me off that the product discrimination on even the return label still describes it as an indestructible plush dog toy. Please don’t waste your money this not as advertised. There’s nothing about this product to justify the outrageous expense for a toy that didn’t last five minutes.

Scam
Color: Brown+Blue, Color: Brown+Blue
Zero stars! What a disgrace. I waited weeks due to the delivery date changing after I placed the order. Then the shipping went up and cost more than the toy. It lasted 5 mins after opening, and it's head fell off. It was not even sewn on. So much for indestructible!!! Then when I returned, they sent a auto comment asking if I would keep it and take a 50% refund. No freaking way!! I'm so irritated right now.

This is not even chew resistant!!
Color: Brown
If there was an option for ZERO stars that would be this. Within 5 minutes my little 11 pound Havanese had all the ears off, then out came the stuffing. He had the little dog, and a green duck. I had to take the duck away to sew it….then he still had studding everywhere…and that was the little dog. Throwing stuffing and pieces away….I should have put these right back in the bags they came in. In no way ate these even chew “resistant “!!!! Probably just look good onna shelf.👎👎
