Summary

El lector de Navidad y Matanza debe desentranar cual de estas historias no es una alegoria: un adolescente y su chofer se dedican a recorrer playas en un Cadillac, enganando a los banistas y robandoles sus toallas; siete cientificos se encierran en un recondito laboratorio norteamericano hasta dar con la formula de una droga llamada "el extasis del odio;" un periodista melancolico investiga la desaparicion de los jovenes hermanos Bruno y Alicia Vivar durante una exclusiva celebracion internacional que se lleva a cabo en el litoral de Chile. Como en una novela de Chesterton, los personajes de Navidad y Matanza cambian a cada pagina de identidad para forzar los limites de su propio relato y alcanzar al propio autor de esta novela--el joven escritor chileno Carlos Labbe--como un tablero de juegos cuyas fichas avanzan hacia un final impensable. Dos pueblos, Navidad y Matanza, que encierran un misterio. Una novela juego que es, sobre todo, un excelente y vigoroso retrato de personajes muy poco comunes. Y un escritor al que muchos consideran uno de los herederos de Roberto Bolano.
