About the Book

La historia de un pícaro del siglo XX que un día es fugitivo acorralado, al otro terapeuta de pacotilla y, en un descuido, merodeador de velatorios de perfectos extraños.

Joaquín tiene treinta, la vida hecha pedazos y el compromiso de redactar un libro de autoayuda, en cuyas páginas sólo consigue perpetrar lecciones prácticas de autoperjuicio.

¿Qué es todo lo que puede explicar este pícaro del siglo XX que un día es fugitivo acorralado, al otro terapeuta de pacotilla y, en un descuido, merodeador galante de velorios de perfectos extraños? Nada que Imelda y Gina -dos mujeres de sombra larga y mecha corta, cada una a su modo capaz de cualquier cosa- estén dispuestas a creerse fácilmente.

Del diálogo punzante a la introspección ácida, los personajes de Puedo explicarlo todo estelarizan una historia plena de comezones entretejidas, rencores entrañables y demonios comunes, donde cada meandro puede ser un abismo y nose quiere más que seguir bajando.

No muy lejos de ahí, se agazapa Dalila: una cómplice ideal que todavía no cumple los diez años y jamás ha leído un libro de autoayuda, pero cuyas pupilas deslumbradas parecen reflejar ya la sentencia del malandro y maestro Isaías Balboa: «El tiempo te lo dan, la vida hay que robársela».

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Joaquín's 30-year old life is a complete disaster. For years he's been pushing to write a self-help book but he cannot seem to write anything relevant. Isaías Balboa is a fraud who uses the talent of others, Joaquín being one of them, to write the self-help books he publishes under his name. Nine-year old Dalila is still untouched by prejudice. Smart, innocent and full of ideas, she believes in the possibility of magic and finds adults incomprehensible-perhaps that's why she is the only one Joaquín can actually explain things to.
