About the Book

Frog es una tumba, es una trampa... es un lugar para terminar de extraviar a aquellos que ya andaban perdidos.

En estas historias breves un grupo de amigos fundan una nación dentro de su apartamento, un escritor fracasado y perturbado acosa a un crítico literario por no haber premiado su obra, una pareja de recién casados se extravía en un remoto y misterioso poblado que no aparece en ningún mapa y terminan envueltos en un crimen, un niño escapa de su casa y descubre un pasaje hacia la muerte, un crédulo ermitaño en un desierto explica su entorno desde la lógica de la ciencia ficción.

Entre lo fantástico, lo absurdo, lo extravagante y la realidad cruda estos relatos son un sinuoso sendero para que el lector aventure su propio extravío.

La crítica sobre Perdidos en Frog

"El miedo, el absurdo y el desamparo son dichos aquí a través de unos personajes que viven una soledad compartida, paradójica y esencial, que solo puede surgir en medio del colectivo". Mariano Nava Contreras. El Universal.

"Perdidos en Frog, de Jesús Miguel Soto es una maravillosa colección de cuentos embutidos de humanidad, desolación y humor cáustico; sobre todo, asumidos con una prosa cómoda y sin demasías. Posiblemente, uno de los textos más divertidos y de más contagiosa fiebre que se puede abordar en castellano en estos días. Momentos sin desperdicio a través de viajes por la infancia, por lugares inexistentes, dosis de surrealismo, micro momentos de terror... un atajo por las emociones más viles, con una consistente influencia de las fábulas visuales -Gillian, Lynch, Tarantino- que han marcado a las nuevas generaciones de escritores más audaces y sin complejos". Joaquín Ortega.

"Estamos ante un libro de alta factura, pero más aún, ante un joven autor que sin mayores aspavientos expone una narrativa aguda, honda, con personajes que se dejan entrever en las posibilidades de la realidad cotidiana. Las ideas en Soto parecen siempre nacer de una imagen particular, una escena; pero no la que pareciera recrear la historia que cuenta, sino aquella que se esconde detrás de un simple detalle de todo el relato". Geraudi González. El Nacional.

"Un autor maduro, con experticia, dotado del arte de conducir historias y crear personajes, y con ellos conmovernos, dada su facultad para mantener la tensión y el arco dramático, en impecable consonancia con la verosimilitud interna". Oscar Marcano. Prodavinci.

"Sus relatos mantienen la tensión de principio a fin; hay un claro oficio en su prosa, y con descaro de autor que piensa muy bien su obra, sus finales dejan al lector con ganas de más y con la posibilidad de que cada quien imagine cierres alternos". Librería Sónica.

Pueblos perdidos en los márgenes de las favelas, ciudades imaginadas y espacios cerrados son los escenarios de estas historias.
