Literary Quality and Reading Experience:

  • High-Intensity Narrative: The young philologist Diego Marín travels to Valparaíso to resolve his uncertain future when a chance encounter inspires him to write his first novel. The unexpected success of its publication allows him to settle in New York, where life and love interfere with the writing of his second book, and his name eventually falls into oblivion. When a phone call from his former editor puts him on the trail of an extraordinary accident that faithfully reproduces the ending of his famous novel, Marín travels without hesitation to the Colombian jungle. But fate once again crosses his path and, as he investigates, he will understand that some stories deserve to be told at any cost, while others demand silence to save a life.
    In the same story, Rosado tells five more. Diego Marín, a writer trying to finish his second novel after the success of his debut, ends up involved in a perpetual literary simulation: fictional events brought to real life, a scientific discovery about the birth of language (talk of Cartesians, Broca, and Leibniz — as well as the idea that the first humans learned to speak by imitating birdsong), two disappearances, two books, and two failed loves. An ode to flight. A leap into the void. The book delves into this confusion between literature and life that cannot be called coincidence. It is not confusion: it is an adventure. Around the world in 344 pages.

    «Benjamín G. Rosado debuts as a brave writer, with a torrential voice that transitions between the picaresque and erudition.» ABC

    «The latest winner of the Biblioteca Breve Prize is an extremely pleasant read, one of those increasingly rare stories of pure fiction, full of pitfalls, layers of meaning, and digressions, which suggest and demand immersion.» El Mundo

    «This novel is a game where the end of one story is the beginning of the next.» El Periódico

    «A surprising literary investigation into the power of fiction to transform reality, revealing stories within stories, written by a great storyteller in the best tradition of authors like Paul Auster or Roberto Bolaño.» Jury of the Biblioteca Breve Prize 2025

    «It's a kind of polyhedral narration built on the model of One Thousand and One Nights.» El Periódico

    «How I wished to read a book like this! And how I needed this literature, so primitive, yet at the same time so elaborate and careful, how I longed for such pure fiction, full of pitfalls, layers of meaning, and digressions (not all necessary, by any means, but all interesting, both the historical and rigorous ones and the completely invented ones). El Mundo
