Julio Llamazares returns to a genre that brings its particular look in twelve stories and a fable.
This collection of stories includes the most I've written in years. At a time like this in the windows of the bookstores are full of self-help books and novels for entertainment, the title perhaps surprising, but it does honor to its content. And my nihilist tradition: In the middle of nowhere, in the clouds, the river of forgetfulness No one listens ...
A football player facing the most decisive moment of his career, an old Neapolitan who rediscovers the love of his youth before he died a poor man who wants to stop the world, a driver who disappears, a woman it reveals the great secret of its existence when it is too late ... The protagonists of these stories are very different, but all share the same strange sentence: discover that life is a useless passion.
A passion that is part of the art of writing and counting, which is linked to reading and thinking, and allows us to keep watching even though we know its uselessness. Julio Llamazares

So are the layoffs of men who know they are born of the earth and that land back, but hugged her, with that kind of immortality offered by the soil from which we get up each day with new experiences incorporated.
