Historia de un canalla
Historia de un canalla | Julia Navarro
Un audaz cambio de registro en el que Julia Navarro disecciona la ambicin, la codicia y el egosmo del ser humano. Soy un canalla y no me arrepiento de serlo. He mentido, engaado y manipulado a mi antojo sin que me importaran las consecuencias. He destruido sueos y reputaciones, he traicionado a los que me han sido leales, he provocado dolor a aquellos que quisieron ayudarme. He jugado con las esperanzas de quienes pensaron que podran cambiar lo que soy. S lo que hice y siempre supe lo que deb hacer. Esta es la historia de un canalla. La ma. Thomas Spencer sabe cmo conseguir todo lo que desea. Una salud delicada es el precio que ha tenido que pagar por su estilo de vida, pero no se lamenta por ello. Sin embargo, desde su ltimo episodio cardaco, una sensacin extraa se ha apoderado de l y en la soledad de su lujoso apartamento de Brooklyn, se suceden las noches en que no puede evitar preguntarse cmo habra sido la vida que conscientemente eligi no vivir. El recuerdo de los momentos que le llevaron a triunfar como publicista y asesor de imagen, entre Londres y Nueva York en los ochenta y noventa, nos descubre los turbios mecanismos que en ocasiones emplean los centros de poder para conseguir sus fines. Un mundo hostil, gobernado por hombres, en el que las mujeres se resisten a tener un papel secundario. La crtica ha dicho... Historia de un canalla es una novela llena de coraje. La mejor de Julia Navarro. Una novela en la que la complejidad psicolgica se ala con lo mejor del thriller. Juan ngel Juristo, ABC Cultural

Mehso-so

This book is a slow burn, but manages to keep a fair amount of tension throughout. The protagonist is vile and wading through his depraved unreliable perspectives can get a bit tiresome. I did enjoy the downward sloping if his psychosis, which was written convincingly.

After a rough few weeks I went against my self-imposed bookstore ban and went to Barnes & Noble. I needed to get a book light to replace one I left at a hotel by accident recently. Oops. This is what happens when I go in a bookstore.... And on top of that, Amazon had a ton of great deals on ebooks and audiobooks today! #bookhaul #bookproblems #needmorehoursintheday #booksmakemefeelbetter

@BookBabe scoured the bookstore bookshelves yesterday and had her interest piqued with this thick selection. Anyone acquainted with this title?! #MrBookWantsToKnow

Redwritinghood Haven't heard of this one. Intriguing though, I do agree. 8y
ephemeralwaltz Lots of buzz surrounding this here in Spain! 8y
Gissy I bought it but in Spanish, is in my tbr. Interesting because the title in Spanish is not sociopath. Sociopath and "canalla" not necessarily means the same thing so I'm intrigue what this person did to call him sociopath! I only had read from her Tell Me Who I am. I liked it but sometimes I felt overwhelmed with the principal character and didn't like the end but some novels end like that, like forex Kundera and others, with absurd endings! 8y
Ilirwen My Spanish is a bit rusty but couldn't canalla translate as 'rogue'? 8y
