Summary

Premio Bellas Artes de Narrativa Colima para Obra Publicada 2020.

Una odisea a través del infierno: Laberinto refleja la desolación que han vivido algunas comunidades del país, sobre todo en la región norte, durante la llamada "guerra del narco".


Esta novela narra lo que han sufrido algunas regiones de México en la "guerra del narco", hasta ver sus municipios convertidos en pueblos fantasma. El viaje de ida y de regreso a la casa paterna en medio del caos y la muerte. Un relato en el que, a través de la experiencia de un par de adolescentes (Darío y su novia), filtrada por la memoria y las palabras de un hombre maduro se intentan concentrar y sintetizar ciertas experiencias que ha vivido la población al encontrarse inmersa en una guerra ajena, una guerra en la que no tenían por qué haber tomado parte.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

An odyssey through hell: Labyrinth reflects the devastation that some communities, especially in northern Mexico, have lived through during the so-called "Drug War."

This novel narrates what some regions of Mexico have suffered during the "Drug War," even seeing some of their cities converted to ghost towns; the trip leaving and returning to the family home in the middle of chaos and death. Through the experiences of a pair of teenagers (Darío and his girlfriend), and filtered by memory and the words of a mature man, this is a tale that concentrates and synthesizes certain experiences that the population has lived through upon finding themselves immersed in someone else’s war, a war they had no reason to take part in.
