This crime novel set is in the barrios outside of Buenos Aires takes place over a few propulsive days, depicting a teenager going from borderline innocent to a combatant in a brutal drug war between rival gangs. It is well written (although the street language sometimes seems off in what is generally a well done translation). And heartbreaking at times.

( ) This crime novel set is in the barrios outside of Buenos Aires takes place over a few propulsive days, depicting a teenager going from borderline innocent to a combatant in a brutal drug war between rival gangs. It is well written (although the street language sometimes seems off in what is generally a well done translation). And heartbreaking at times. Although the overall plot and setting are reasonably well trodden ground. Het boek beschrijft het leven van 2 vrienden in een geweldadige achterbuurt. De ellende wordt met iedere pagina groter. Er is een soort parallel met het verhaal van Moby Dick dat door 1 van de jonhens wordt gelezen. Jammer genoeg komt die parallel niet erg goed uit de verf. Aan het eind probeert een intellectueel de vergelijking te maken: Moby Dick staat voor de schipbreuk van een hele samenleving. Hoewel de omstandigheden deprimerend zijn is het boek goed geschreven, met veel vaart. Het uitzichtloze van de jongens wordt scherp neergezet. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

'There's seven ways to kill a cat. But when it comes down to it, there's only two ways. In a civilised fashion or like a fucking savage'. In Buenos Aires, the economy has collapsed and people are protesting on the streets. But in the barrio, life goes on - the slums of the city are ruled by gangs, drugs and guns. Gringo and Chueco are almost adults, and joining the gang warfare that governs their community seems inevitable. Chueco thinks he can join El Jetita's gang but remain his own man, Gringo knows this can't happen - you obey the leader or else. As the two get drawn ever deeper into the turf war between El Jetita and his rival Charly, Gringo sees an alternative way of life, and love, pass before his eyes. A few days ago he and Chueco were joking about killing cats; now he's fighting to save his skin. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
