Esta frasepodría resumir la divertida y magnífica novela de la narradora venezolanaCarolina Lozada, pero no agota su desarrollo ni limita la complejidadde su registro, donde el llanto puede surgir tras la pausa de la risa.Personajes irreductibles a una definición totalizante, situaciones disparatadas, erotismo, historias y opiniones terminarán cruzándose en untejido de humor negro donde el acecho de la soledad y la testarudez enel intento amoroso coincidirán en confirmar que, sin excepción, todoes lo que parece. A woman seeks a partner and unfortunately finds one. This sentence could summarize the humorous and magnificent novel by Venezuelan storyteller Carolina Lozada, but it does not exhaust its development nor limit the complexity of its range, where tears may emerge after a pause of laughter. Characters irreducible to a totalizing definition, absurd situations, eroticism, stories, and opinions will end up intersecting in a fabric of black humor where the stalking of loneliness and stubbornness in the attempt at love will coincide to confirm that, without exception, everything is as it seems.
