No hay gacelas en Finlandia
Premio 25 Primaveras de Novela
Prychyslyy, Dimas
Mario, a clerk in a bookstore and recently fired, spends eight hours of his non-working day on the subway. He has found on the floor of a wagon a paper with something written on it: the list of the last purchase one makes in life. He has to see it Damián, an aspiring writer in the eighties, who decides to request the help of Claudia, whose job is to impersonate some authors on her social networks. There is a mark on the paper that is familiar to him and... Here begins the search that will lead them to Olvido, an accomplice librarian; Aurelio, a legally wounded police commissioner, and Ástrid Lehrer, a character in search of an author. And while these characters "who are not capable of separating the enjoyment that fiction gives them from the enjoyment that delving into the lives of others" dedicate themselves to playing wild detectives, Misha struggles with her sexual identity; his mother, Isolina, with abandonment through an unhealthy relationship with the food that she shares with Antonio and Bea, and Zhora, locked in his house, has come down from the world. Very close to him lives Mar, an old woman of 99 years, a counterpoint of peace and understanding in which the lost find comfort. Including the reader.
