Este libro de cuentos se interna en los pliegues inquietantes de la realidad. Los relatos avanzan con una tensión sostenida, donde nada es del todo inocente y cada detalle parece esconder una amenaza. La intriga no se construye unicamente a partir de la accion, sino tambien desde el clima: silencios densos, atmosferas opresivas y personajes atravesados por decisiones limite y un tanto oscuros.Estos cuentos dialogan con lo cotidiano. Pueblos pequeños, ciudades reconocibles, vinculos familiares y rutinas aparentemente inofensivas funcionan como escenarios donde lo siniestro irrumpe de manera gradual, casi imperceptible. El lector es llevado de la mano hacia un terreno ambiguo, donde la frontera entre victima y culpable se vuelve difusa.Cada historia propone un universo propio, pero todas comparten una misma pulsion: explorar el costado oscuro de lo humano. La violencia, la culpa, la traicion y el miedo no aparecen como golpes efectistas, sino como consecuencias inevitables de decisiones postergadas o verdades ocultas y reveladas.Este conjunto de cuentos confirma una apuesta por la lectura corta pero atrapante, consciente de que el tiempo es un elemento clave.Un libro que propone historias cortas, intrincadas y de lectura atenta, incomoda y atrapante.
