Aquí No Es Miami / This Is Not Miami

Las cr�nicas de Fernanda Melchor dan cuenta de la degradaci�n humana en uno de sus aspectos m�s s�rdidos. Lo que su libro hace es manifestar la ignominia en toda esta rudeza. Aqu� no es Miami es un libro de cr�nicas devastador, luminoso y emotivo. Con facilidad nos lleva de la mano por toda una gama de sentimientos que van de la compasi�n al asombro, de la dulzura a la impiedad. Parece que est� escrito por un sobreviviente, o, digamos, por un exconvicto. El ojo de Fernanda Melchor es implacable. Mira por nosotros. Nos ahorra el trabajo de desplazarnos a Veracruz y de atisbar en las oquedades m�s profundas de aquellos hombres forjados en la lucha por la sobrevivencia. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Fernanda Melchor's chronicles recount human degradation at its most shameful and disgusting aspects. This Is Not Miami is a devastating, eye-opening, and emotional compilation of stories that bring forth and shed light on great brutality and atrocities. She smoothly guides us through feelings that range from compassion to admiration, and harmony to the unkind. It reads as if it were written by a survivor, or an ex-convict; her judgement and discernment is unyielding. She does the ground work for us, of going to Veracruz and taking a glimpse into the lives of those men and their struggle for survival.
