A menudo controvertido, pero siempre muy directo, Jaime Bayly impresionar??? a sus lectores con esta nueva novela de ficci???n sat???rica y sumamente humor???stica, en la que explora el lugar de la homosexualidad en la sociedad latinoamericana y desaf???a el status quo. Pecho Fr???o es un hombre com???n. Est??? casado, vive en Lima, Per??? y trabaja como banquero. No lleva una vida muy emocionante, pero tampoco tiene nada de que quejarse... hasta el d???a en que decide concursar en un programa de televisi???n donde se enfrenta con la oportunidad de ganar un viaje lujoso. Todo lo que tiene que hacer es una cosa aparentemente sencilla: besar al anfitri???n del programa. Renuente, pero tambi???n ansioso por reclamar su premio, acepta el reto, y antes de siquiera darse cuenta, se encuentra entrelazando lenguas con otro hombre, mientras todo queda grabado en televisi???n en vivo. Lo que se desarrolla es una serie de, uno dir???a, "eventos desafortunados". Su matrimonio se resquebraja, sus colegas lo rechazan, y la siempre conservadora sociedad latinoamericana en la que vive lo convierte en el tonto de la ciudad. Pero hay una ventaja: se convierte en la cara de una vociferante organizaci???n LGBT y, de alguna manera, su vida da un giro hacia lo inesperado. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Jaime Bayly impresses with this humorous and satirical novel in which he explores homosexuality's place in Latin American society and challenges the status quo. Pecho Frio is an ordinary and average man. He is married, lives in Lima, Peru and works as a banker. He doesn't lead a very exciting life at all. One day he decides to enter a contest on a television show where he could win a luxurious trip. All he has to do is one seemingly simple thing: kiss the male host of the show. Reluctant, but also eager to claim the grand prize, he accepts the challenge, and before he knows it, he finds himself tongue wrestling another man, while everything is being played on live television. Soon thereafter his marriage falls apart and his colleagues reject him. But something good does come out of it all: he becomes the spokesperson for a loud and determined LGBT organization and, somehow, his life takes an unexpected turn.
