About the Book

Una sátira sobre la generación crucial que cambió para siempre los valores estadounidenses. Después de la "generación gloriosa" que salvó al pueblo estadounidense de la Gran Depresión, la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la Alemania nazi, llegaron los rebeldes de la década de 1950 que nos legaron el rock'n'roll, los autos clásicos de exposición, el bebop y los métodos de crianza del Dr. Spock. En el paisaje del oeste de Texas de los años 50, Tim y Hect, dos amigos adolescentes y díscolos, disfrutan de "la buena vida". Tras crecer acunados en un estilo de vida que incluso les permitía jugar a la guerra con rifles calibre 22, el mundo de los muchachos súbitamente da un giro abrupto cuando lo que era un simple juego deriva en un espantoso asesinato. Al caer el día, a Hect se le ocurre una última broma: incendiar una vieja choza en un desarmadero de autos abandonado. Tim acepta de inmediato, aunque en realidad cree que el objetivo de su amigo es un nido de avispas que cuelga de un mezquite. Los muchachos llenan una botella con combustible de un camión en ruinas y arrojan la bomba Molotov contra la choza, que se convierte en una bola de fuego. En medio de su asombro, al comprender que su amigo había decidido incendiar la construcción, Tim ve con horror una figura en llamas a través de una ventana. Y el momento en que la antorcha humana y el aterrorizado Tim cruzan la mirada se graba en la memoria del muchacho. El ruido de las sirenas que se acercan desde el pueblo los interrumpe. Convencidos de que la broma los hará acabar con una sentencia de muerte, Tim y Hect deciden que solo les queda una opción: convertirse en fugitivos de la ley. Armados solo con su férrea determinación y una ingenuidad abrumadora, los dos muchachos huyen hacia el desierto de Texas. Sin embargo, su estilo de vida malcriado no los había preparado para enfrentar el hambre, la sed, la vida en los caminos, la falta de refugio y todo un mundo oculto de pobreza y padecimientos, a lo que se suma la sordidez de las calles de Juárez, en México. Estos son algunos de los comentarios de los editores acerca del libro: "Es una historia muy entretenida, repleta de tensión, pero también con mucho humor". "En una sátira cruda sobre los privilegios y los excesos sociales que se burla de la década de 1950 y los descendientes de la "generación gloriosa", la novela de humor y aventuras HAY UNA GENERACIÓN muestra con sabiduría el salvajismo propio de la juventud, la inutilidad de los derechos heredados y la fugacidad de la infancia con un estilo que cautivará a los lectores de todas las edades". "De principio a fin, esta novela de ficción representa una farsa entretenida que atraviesa aventuras y situaciones cómicas, con un final sorprendente que nadie podrá imaginar". "Pura diversión" desarrollada por un "maestro de la narración". TODAS LAS CRÍTICAS DEL LIBRO SON AUTÉNTICAS Y CORRESPONDEN A LECTORES REALES, Y NO HAN SIDO COMPRADAS EN SITIOS WEB NI "INTERCAMBIADAS" CON OTROS AUTORES.
