El Muro (The Wall)

El Muro gathers 24 stories ranging from the exquisite violence of a narco who longs to be a writer to the sexual evolution of a man who, after suffering from premature ejaculation, is able to practice tantric sex, while still feeling sorry for himself, through the sudden love a woman feels for a successful underwear publicist. In El Muro you witnesss the stark portrait of jealousies and resentments that animate the literary world to the psychological flirtation of a dreamer who awakens only to commit suicide. There is room for the risky adventure of a hungry adolescent life and the fantastic encounter of a couple with Cthulhu, the legendary character created by H. P. Lovecraft. Also there is violent sex, poorly managed and well managed; dirty families and filmmakers with dubious qualities, but lucky in love entanglements. There are losers who become friends and explicable and inexplicable murders; narcissism's and nightmares. In this cute cocktail, there is no shortage of alcoholics redeemed and paradoxical kidnappings; exposing corrupt politicians and the innocent effrontery to naughty children. Unscrupulous sex and collective self-defense in politics and crime. All united by a thoughtful appreciation and at the same time a shameless reality.
