Description:
«La buena literatura perturba, y perdura, como lo prueba esta enorme novela, soñada y escrita entre las paredes de una celda, y que ahora está por cumplir 50 años.» --Fernanda Melchor
Escrita con la máxima intensidad y un impresionante arsenal de recursos narrativos, este libro ofrece la inusual combinación de profundidad y humor que caracteriza la obra de José Agustín.
Se está haciendo tarde (final en laguna) es considerada por la crítica una de las grandes novelas mexicanas de fin de milenio. Ambientada en Acapulco, a inicios de los setenta, narra el viaje interminable de un lector de cartas de tarot, un dealer acapulqueño -quienes sostienen una increíble relación sadomasoquista- y un joven gay, callado y sabio, que contrarresta el vértigo del libro. Estos personajes entran en un trepidante torbellino donde las drogas, el rock, la irreverencia y la rebeldía son los elementos detonantes de una búsqueda profunda. Escrita desde una intensidad aterradora, Se está haciendo tarde (final en laguna) explora la naturaleza humana y refleja el fin de una era al tiempo que describe la que está naciendo. En este libro, José Agustín nos vuelve hacia nosotros mismos, combinando magistralmente la profundidad con el humor, elementos que caracterizan el resto de su obra.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Written with the utmost intensity and an impressive arsenal of narrative tricks, this book offers the unusual combination of depth and humor that characterizes the works of José Agustín.
It's Getting Late (End in the Lagoon) is considered by critics one of the great Mexican novels of the late millennium. Set in Acapulco during the early 1970s, it tells of the never-ending trip undertaken by a tarot reader and an Acapulco drug-dealer, who are engaged in an incredible sadomasochistic relationship, and a quiet and wise homosexual youth, who counteracts the book's vertigo. These characters enter an event-packed whirlwind where drugs, rock 'n' roll, irreverence, and rebellion serve as triggers for a profound personal search. Witten with terrifying intensity, It's Getting Late (End in the Lagoon)explores human nature and reflects the end of an era while describing the beginning of another one. In this book, José Agustín turns our gaze onto ourselves while masterfully combining depth and humor, two elements that characterize all of his work
