It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen. Winston Smith, his chin nuzzled into his breast in an effort to escape the vile wind, slipped quickly through the glass doors of Victory Mansions, though not quickly enough to prevent a swirl of gritty dust from entering along with him.The hallway smelt of boiled cabbage and old rag mats. At one end of it a coloured poster, too large for indoor display, had been tacked to the wall. It depicted simply an enormous face, more than a metre wide: the face of a man of about forty-five, with a heavy black moustache and ruggedly handsome features.Winston made for the stairs. It was no use trying the lift. Even at the best of times it was seldom working, and at present the electric current was cut off during daylight hours. It was part of the economy drive in preparation for Hate Week. The flat was seven flights up, and Winston, who was thirty-nine and had a varicose ulcer above his right ankle, went slowly, resting several times on the way. On each landing, opposite the lift-shaft, the poster with the enormous face gazed from the wall. It was one of those pictures which are so contrived that the eyes follow you about when you move.BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING YOU, the caption beneath it ran.

El terror psicológico, el humor negro, el horror sobrenatural y la apocalíptica sensación de vacío existencial de la posverdad son los motores que ponen en marcha a estas oscuras narraciones. Muchas de ellas se inspiran en hechos reales a los que el autor sobrevivio para contarlos: el secreto del exito de Marcelo di Marco es sacar a pasear a sus monstruos bajo la tenebrosa y digna luz de un plenilunio comun a todos los que se atreven a sumergirse en las profundidades del alma."Cualquier relato de 25 noches de insomnio podria guionarse para Black Mirror o La dimension desconocida" (Nicolas Amelio-Ortiz). "A 25 noches de insomnio se la juzgara, tal vez, como la obra narrativa mas politicamente incorrecta de la literatura argentina de principios de siglo. Lo que usted ahora mismo tiene entre sus manos, estimado lector, es un futuro clasico de la fantasia y el espanto. Asi que tenga cuidado y sostengalo con decision. No, asi no. ¡Con decision, dije, con el pulso bien firme! Con ganas de intentar que esta granada de mano no le despedace la cabeza" (Pablo Di Marco).

"Una tarde de hace diez o quince años, Marcelo di Marco sacó un libro de su biblioteca y me mostró una dedicatoria de Abelardo Castillo. Seguramente conserva ese libro en perfecto estado, y todavía lo descuelga del anaquel mas alto para compartirlo entre amigos. La dedicatoria decia, con las omisiones y ajustes que me depara la memoria: Para Marcelo di Marco, el unico que reconozco que rivaliza en mi amor y conocimiento por Edgar Allan Poe.En este segundo tomo de 25 noches de insomnio late el espiritu inmortal de Poe, con los monstruos que conocio Poe, pero tambien con los monstruos de la modernidad. Porque Di Marco es un hombre de estilo clasico, con cuentos que honran lo mejor de la tradicion del cuento; pero es tambien un hombre de accion que se involucra para darle batalla al presente. Hay violencia y cinismo en estas paginas oscuras que nos hablan de horrores sobrenaturales y cotidianos. Sus cuentos nos incomodan y nos causan placer a la vez. Temblamos de gozo y de miedo. Marcelo di Marco escribe terror para mostrarnos que los verdaderos monstruos, sin importar las epocas o las mascaras, son siempre el mismo" (Miguel Sardegna).
