Book Description

“Como en los sueños, en Montevideo las cosas me resultaban parecidas pero diferentes. Eran pero no eran.” Lucas Pereyra viaja a Uruguay en barco por el día a buscar dólares. Son tiempos de restricciones cambiarias. Tiene ya arreglado un encuentro secreto en Montevideo, pero sus planes pueden fallar. Encandilado por el recuerdo de un verano anterior y agobiado por un matrimonio que se resquebraja, sueña con escaparse y no volver. ¿Con quién se va a encontrar? Montevideo, esa ciudad idealizada por la distancia, se volverá impredecible. La uruguaya es una novela inquietante y ferozmente entretenida. Con pulso magistral, Pedro Mairal sostiene la intriga en cada una de sus páginas y demuestra, de modo irrefutable, que es uno de los grandes de la literatura argentina contemporánea.
