Tras La hija de la espa�ola , la �ltima gran sorpresa de la literatura latinoamericana. A sus diecis�is a�os, Facundo empieza a descubrir las hipocres�as que lo rodean en el Per� de los a�os 1990. Ha crecido en Lima en el seno de una familia burguesa, junto a su hermana Alexia, un a�o mayor que �l, y unos padres atentos. En el colegio religioso en el que estudia hace lo que el resto de sus amigos: hablar de chicas, practicar deporte y pensar en la fiesta de promoci�n. Pero Facundo tiene una particularidad: padece narcolepsia, y puede dormirse en las situaciones m�s inoportunas, aunque tambi�n as� consigue evitar situaciones conflictivas. Cuando su hermana revela en casa que est� embarazada, la noticia cae como una bomba. Desencantado con la sociedad, con su familia y con la religi�n y frustrado por no poder ayudar a su hermana, Facundo se escapa de casa y emprende un vagabundeo por el submundo de su ciudad que le har� cambiar para siempre. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION After La hija de la espa�ola / It Would Be Night in Caracas, this is the latest great surprise in Latin American literature. At age sixteen, Facundo begins to see the hypocrisies that surround him in Peru in the 1990s. He has grown up in Lima in a well-to-do traditionalist family, along with his sister Alexia, a year older than him, and parents who have always been there for him and his needs. In his private and religious school he does what the rest of his friends do: talk about girls, play sports, and think about their graduation party. But Facundo has a peculiarity: he suffers from narcolepsy, and can fall asleep in the most inappropriate situations, although he sometimes uses it to his advantage. When her sister reveals to her family that she is pregnant, the news drops like a bomb. Discouraged by society, disenchanted with his family and his religion, and frustrated at not being able to help his sister, Facundo runs away from home and goes on a prowl through Lima's underworld which will change him forever.
