He aquí cuatro narraciones perturbadoras que arrastra al lector a los límites del desasosiego y de lo extraño. En Crímenes triviales, una primera obra que no lo parece, se escuchan los ecos de Kafka, Cortázar o Auster. Nos hallamos ante literatura del mayor nivel. Una prosa bien abastecida, un hábil manejo de la narración y de sus ritmos, la capacidad para envolvernos en una atmósfera de ansiedad y suspense- cuando no de mero terror-, y, a la vez, su hondo calado metafísico, hacen de Crímenes triviales una obra fecunda y de nada trivial en la lectura."

Qualcuno sta cercando di cambiare gli avvenimenti del Novecento per trarne vantaggio. Le stragi che si potevano evitare, i massacri inutili, gli incidenti da prevenire.

L'incubo di una discronia perfetta, che cambierà la Storia, è raccontata da Lukha B. Kremo, uno degli autori più attivi del movimento letterario del Connettivismo. L'audiolibro è proposto da Kipple Officina Libraria per la lettura di Lorenzo Visi.

Every family is a secret society. Forget the Freemasons, forget the OTO, and forget the Illuminati. This applies to some families more than others, but no family is an exception. My family is both typical and exemplary. For your paranoia trip, look no further than your own household. Think about all the secrets you keep—every deep, dark one and every shallow, vain one, and all in between. Stop assuming everyone else doesn’t have the same amount of secrets or more. They are all constantly lying about, omitting, and distorting information.
