<b>"Y no podía creer que fuera de noche todavía, que esa incandescencia fuera la noche. Daba lo mismo cerrar los ojos o mantenerlos abiertos."</b> <p>Después de la <b>temprana muerte de sus padres</b> en un trágico accidente automovilístico, Bianca, poco más que una adolescente, se descubre abocada al <b>abismo </b>de una existencia que no tiene ningún futuro. Dedica sus horas a lavar, tintar y cortar pelo mientras su hermano se mezcla con gente de <b>dudosa reputación</b> en el gimnasio donde trabaja. La aparición de dos hombres misteriosos los llevará a <b>planear un delito </b>que podría rescatarlos de sus penurias económicas. La pequeña fortuna de un viejo y ciego actor podría convertirse en una puerta de huida que los <b>conduzca </b>a algún lugar; el que sea, pero a alguno. Bianca tiene mucho que ganar y nada que perder, pues ¿qué ha de esperar quien ha abandonado toda esperanza? </p><p><i>Una novelita lumpen </i>es un relato sobre el <b>descenso a los infiernos</b> de una mujer que se encuentra transitando por el delgado filo que separa la lucidez y la cordura, la infelicidad y la capacidad humana para reinventarse. </p><p><b>ENGLISH DESCRIPTION</b> </p><p><b>"And she couldn't believe it was still night, that that incandescence was the night. It made no difference whether she closed her eyes or kept them open."</b> </p><p>After the <b>early death of her parents</b> in a tragic car accident, Bianca, little more than a teenager, finds herself plunged into the <b>abyss </b>of an existence with no future. She spends her days washing, dyeing, and cutting hair while her brother mixes with people of <b>dubious reputation</b> at the gym where he works. The appearance of two mysterious petty criminals that her brother brings home, will lead them to <b>plan a crime </b>that could rescue them from their financial hardships. The small fortune of an old, blind actor could become an escape route that <b>leads </b>them somewhere--anywhere, but somewhere. Bianca has much to gain and nothing to lose, for what is there to expect from someone who has abandoned all hope? </p><p><i>A Little Lumpen Novelita </i>is a story about the <b>descent into hell</b> of a woman who finds herself walking the fine line between lucidity and sanity, unhappiness and the human capacity to reinvent oneself. </p><p><b>Electric and tense with foreboding, <i>A Little Lumpen Novelita</i> --the last novel Roberto Bolaño published in his lifetime--delivers a surprising, fractured tale of taking control of one's fate.</b></p>
