The work proposes an uncomfortable and fascinating experience: a narrator who declares herself the author observes Don in silence, a protagonist lost in the 21st century, while he monologues without receiving a response. Through a mute gaze, somewhere between robotic and forensic, the reader witnesses the expulsion of a nobody from New York City and his own era, in a story where advertisements and algorithms define reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe novel introduces a character, Don, who is observed by a narrator who identifies herself from the beginning as the book's author. He speaks to her and for her, but she remains in absolute silence throughout the entire story, limiting herself to witnessing the events without intervening. Through this mute gaze, we learn the circumstances of Don, a nobody who is progressively expelled not only from the New York City in which he lives, but from a 21st century in which he finds himself lost and to which he does not belong. Their two bodies coexist, touch, and share space and time, but the words flow in only one direction, as if his monologue were being recorded by a surveillance camera.

The premise of an author observing her character in silence, in a unidirectional monologue that critiques contemporary society, is original and provocative. The work not only expands Camila Cañeque's creative universe but also offers an uncomfortable and necessary reflection on loneliness, surveillance, and the impact of advertising on our lives. It is a recommended read for those who value formal experimentation and social critique in literature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"EDICIONES LA UÑA ROTA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53407427756379,"sku":"9788418782848","price":19.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/0650\/6331\/files\/978841878284.jpg?v=1781855465","url":"https:\/\/kalamobooks.com\/en\/products\/9788418782848","provider":"Kalamo Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
