«Javier Argüello es, sin duda, uno de los escritores actuales más interesantes en nuestra lengua». -ZendaEn este deslumbrante libro, Javier Argüello reúne siete cuentos de estirpe fantástica, deudores y renovadores de la tradición fundada por Gógol, Poe, Maupassant o Borges. Dueño de un estilo sutil y eficaz, Argüello nos cuenta historias inquietantes y turbadoras, a veces espeluznantes, hechas con la materia que se extiende tras el fi lo de la realidad. Cada una de estas siete piezas nos hipnotiza tanto por el bien medido ritmo de su prosa como por el dibujo de los personajes y su trama envolvente y sobrecogedora. En la primera, por ejemplo, Argüello narra las vicisitudes de un hombre que cree que escribe un relato cuando en verdad tan solo es el personaje de otro relato que vive atrapado en la telaraña de la ficción. En otro cuento nos mantendrá en vilo con la increíble y maravillosa historia de un hombre a quien un profesor de astronomía ordena que construya una casa al revés bajo la tierra de su jardín, pues algo horrible está a punto de suceder en el mundo... También podremos asistir a la inaudita confesión de un enchufe, una voz que contará la odisea que le llevó a habitar allí dentro; o a la aventura de un joven que viaja por Europa y se encuentra en Londres con un escritor del siglo XIX que ha pactado con el diablo para viajar al futuro y comprobar así su posible ingreso en la Historia de la Literatura; una pequeña obra maestra sobre la textura del tiempo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Javier Argüello is, without doubt, one of the most intriguing authors writing in Spanish today." -Zenda
This stunning volume includes seven fantastic stories that both recall and reinvent a genre founded by Gogol, Poe, Maupassant and Borges. In his subtle but efficient style, Argüello crafts unsettling, sometimes terrifying tales that test our notion of reality. Each of the seven pieces captivates the reader with the rhythm of its prose and compelling characters and storylines. These include the dilemma of a man who thinks he is writing a story but is in fact a character in someone else's, trapping him in a web of fiction. We are kept in suspense by the incredible story of a worker hired by an astronomy professor to build an underground house, because something horrible is about to happen to Earth. We hear the voice of a person trapped inside an electrical socket, who describes the odyssey that led him there. A young man traveling around Europe meets a nineteenth-century author who made a pact with the Devil, allowing him to travel forward in time to see if his works have made an impression on literature. In short, this book is a small treasure about the nature and texture of time.

The perfect sock!
Size: 6-10, Color: Halo Gray/Assorted
The only socks that I can wear with my hey dudes. They stay on my ankles and never slid down into the shoe. I will forever order these as long as they are available. They are comfy too!

Good option, especially in warmer weather
Size: 6-10, Color: Black
High quality socks and very durable. Nice touch adding the grip on the back of the ankle so the sock stays up. Size is a true fit to the size of your foot as well.

Love these socks!
Size: 6-10, Color: White
Comfortable, no show, and most importantly The Do No Slip!!!! I keep coming back to add to my supply because they have become the only sock I wear. I’ve been using them for a couple years now and they hold to great to washing, bleaching and the dryer. Highly recommended.

The only socks I will buy
Size: 6-10, Color: Halo Gray/Assorted
These are hands down my favorite socks to wear with tennis shoes. Bought my original 6 pack in the store, liked them so much I went buy more and they were gone. These don't slip on your heel like most socks do. Come up high enough on the top of your foot to protect from tongue rubbing (I giggled when I wrote that) and they come in fun colors. Love they are ultra no show and provide padding but people can't see them with shoes on. Five stars!

Size: Medium, Color: Black
Amazing socks. Fits Amazing.
I tried to buy the six pack and it wasn’t the same. Thinner material. The 3 pack is great. Would buy again if it comes up.
