Seller's Description:
López, Nacho. New. No Jacket. Historia de un amor imposible, Las batallas en el desierto es una magistral novela breve que involucra otros aspectos como la corrupción social y política, el inicio del México moderno y la desaparición del país tradicional, y el rescate de las memorias individuales y colectivas de una ciudad a la que José Emilio Pacheco ama profundamente, pero recrea sin nostalgia y denuncia de manera implacable. Desde su aparición, esta novela corta, traducida a varios idiomas y publicada en otras partes del mundo hispano, asombró por su aparente sencillez y la estructura compleja que tiende lazos para una variedad de lecturas múltiples y diferentes, y para una complicidad que hermana para siempre al lector con el autor.
