Overview
«Leer esta novela es una experiencia hipnótica. Versa sobre inmigrantes, pero de una manera extraña, nueva y paradójica.» -World Literature Today
El sueño americano se ha vuelto pesadilla, y tres latinas indocumentadas han quedado atrapadas: Bolivia y sus dos hijas, María Paz y Violeta. María Paz cree tocar el cielo con las manos al casarse con un policía blanco y norteamericano. Hasta que este es asesinado y a ella la meten presa. Pero la celda no será su peor calvario. María Paz descubrirá que el verdadero infierno la espera del lado de afuera de las rejas, y una segunda muerte terminará de definir el rumbo de su suerte.
Hot sur no habla más de cómo atravesar la frontera para entrar ilegalmente a Estados Unidos, sino de lo contrario: una vez adentro, cómo salirse a tiempo. Un libro que mantendrá al lector al borde de la silla desde la primera página hasta la última.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
“Reading this novel is a hypnotic experience. Restrepo writes about immigrants, but in a strange, new and paradoxical way.” -World Literature Today
The American Dream has become a nightmare, and three undocumented immigrants from Latin America find themselves trapped in it: Bolivia and her two daughters, María Paz, and Violeta. María Paz thinks her problems are solved when she marries a white, US-born policeman. Until he is murdered, and she is arrested. But her cell isn’t the real hell; that, she discovers, is waiting for her outside prison, where a second death will define her fate.
Hot Sur isn’t as concerned with how to enter the United States illegally, but rather how to get out in time. This is a book that will keep you on the age of your seat, from the first page to the last.
