Synopsis
The main protagonist of this novel, branded as the emblem for its generation, is an antihero who has given up the fight. He is a thirty-year-old IT engineer who is fed up with his job and bored of his fellow human beings, and thinks little of sex after a thirty year period of chastity. There is no mincing of words as he describes the battleground of today’s day neo-liberal society, and the many defeated soldiers in the economic and sexual spheres.
Esta novela catapultada a la categoría de estandarte de una generación está protagonizada por un antihéroe que ha dejado de luchar, un ingeniero informático de 30 años, hastiado de su trabajo y aburrido de sus congéneres, que desprecia el sexo, lleva dos años de castidad, y describe sin pelos en la lengua el campo de batalla de la actual sociedad neoliberal con sus perdedores en los ámbitos económico y sexual.
