Synopsis "El Arte de la Fuga (in Spanish)"

El personaje central del libro (se supone el propio autor), indefenso y a la vez acorazado con el estupor y la parodia, se fuga de una celda para encontrarse prisionero en otra que podría ser el paraíso, aunque él se encargará de convertir ese Edén en un sitio irrisorio y a la vez entrañable. No hay aquí cronologías que valgan. Todo está. Desde la infancia veracruzana del autor hasta el testimonio de su viaje a Chiapas, después de la insurrección zapatista, pasando por su larga y feliz estancia en Barcelona.
