Product Information

El nuevo libro de Manuel Rivas: tres narraciones en las que lo esencial no es tener o no tener poder, sino decidir ser o no ser libre. INCLUYE EL RELATO QUE INSPIRO LA SERIE DE TELEVISION VIVIR SIN PERMISO Somos lo que recordamos, somos lo que olvidamos, pero tambien somos lo que amamos y lo que nos duele. En El miedo de los erizos habita la rebeldia de los que no tienen nada que perder. Nemo Bandeira, el hombre mas poderoso de Oeste, ve en Vivir sin permiso como, despues de haber intentado durante toda su vida recubrir de respetabilidad los delitos cometidos, su memoria empieza a diluirse. Sagrado mar es una historia sobre la verdadera tragedia de la vida, que no es la desobediencia, sino la obediencia. En este libro compiten el bien y el mal, el sometimiento y la insumision de unos personajes inolvidables, fruto de la maestria narrativa de Manuel Rivas. Con el narcotrafico como negocio y tambien como red que corrompe conciencias y atrapa muchas vidas en su epicentro, las tres narraciones concluyen en la misma verdad: no hay droga mas peligrosa que el poder y la violencia. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Manuel Rivas' new book: three stories in which he describes that it is not important to have or not to have power, but rather decide whether to be or not to be free. Includes the story which inspired the television series Vivir sin permiso / Unauthorized Living . We are the things we remember, we are what we forget, but we also are what we love and what is painful to us. In the story El miedo de los erizos/The Fear of the Hedgehogs is where rebellion lives and it is a place occupied by those who have nothing to lose. In Vivir sin permiso/Unauthorized Living we see how Nemo Bandeira, the most influential businessman in Oeste, has tried throughout his life to cover any crimes committed with as much decency and decorum as possible, and all of a sudden, his memory begins to fade. Sagrado mar/Holy Sea is a story about the true tragedy in life, which is not disobedience or defiance, but rather, obedience and compliance. In this book, we see good and evil compete, the oppression and the insubordination of unforgettable characters are brought to life through Manuel Rivas' masterful narrative. With drug trafficking as a business and as a network that corrupts people's integrities, the three stories end with the same truth: there is no drug more dangerous than power and violence.
