Reseña del libro "Lava and other stories (en Inglés)"
Lava and other stories anatomizes desire, death, and fracturing sexual identities. In the first section of the book, "La Dolce Vita," the title story "Lava" ushers us into a sultry night of sex, nihilism, and transcendence. It is the eve of a prestigious film festival in Taormina, an ancient Sicilian hilltop seaside town, a renowned sexual and gay paradise, once frequented by Nietzsche, Goethe, and D H. Lawrence. Etna erupts. The second section of the book, Shattered, tells of broken lives, emptied out human shells, the husks left behind. There are so many ways to fail at that continuous unending exam which is life - so many ways to fail to fully live - and many of them are cataloged in Lava and Other Stories.
