"Que nadie se confunda con esta mamadera de gallo -un libro de cuentos que sumados dan una novela salvaje- porque no es una autoficción, sino una autosátira con vocación de autoexorcismo: una terapia de choque que emplea todas las formas de lucha, desde los pantallazos hasta los poemas que no tienen versos sino chistes, para liberarse de las frustraciones brutales que tiende a traer la carrera de escritor colombiano". --Ricardo Silva Romero Exitoso para fracasar, excesivo con sus borracheras, excelente cocinero y trapeador, escritor desconocido..., el narrador de esta colección de cuentos ofrece una mirada fresca e hilarante sobre las aventuras y desventuras del mundillo literario y sobre cómo este no resulta ni tan sofisticado ni tan pomposo como se creería. El protagonista fracasa en reemplazar a García Márquez en México, fracasa como invitado a un festival literario, fracasa dando un autógrafo, fracasa como ganador de un premio literario, fracasa como protagonista de un escándalo, y fracasaría como escritor... si hubiera decidido no serlo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Don't be fooled by appearances: This is a collection of stories that, taken together, add up to a wild ride of a novel. Not quite autofiction, it is self-satire aiming at self-exorcism. It is shock therapy that experiments with a range of formats, from screenshots to poems comprised of jokes instead of verses, to vent the frustrations of opting for a career as a writer in Colombia." -Ricardo Silva Romero An expert at failure, a binge drinker, great cook and writer of books no one's heard of... the narrator of these stories offers a refreshing and hilarious look at the adventures and misadventures of life in the literary world, which turns out to be not as sophisticated or pompous as one might think. The protagonist fails to replace García Márquez in Mexico, fails his guest appearance at a literary festival, fails at signing an autograph, fails as the winner of a literary prize, fails at scandal, and would fail as a writer... if he had decided not to be one.Shipping Notes

So hydrating! ******
Size: 1.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Small tube, but this is an amazing moisturizer. It is quite rich feeling yet feels light when applied. I’m confused that some other reviews mentioned a strong smell. I don’t smell anything really- maybe just an extremely light & clean scent.

Very good brand
Size: 1.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Nice quality, is good for sensitive skin, I use it every night before sleep, the prize is good though is cheaper in my local farmacy, the size is average, the skin absorbs it pretty good, and is very lightweight.

Incredibly hydrating but unbearable scent.
Size: 1.3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I love all Avène skin barrier creams, recovery lotions and i just purchased this "Hydrance" cream. Texture is nice, it's unbelievably hydrating but the scent is overwhelming. It caused me a headache. So I decided to return it. Then I thought I'll give it another try and Oh my.... For the love of God, remove that awful scent. The reason I love Avène product is because theyre unscented, except this one I guess :/

Good product

A little pricey but works very well. Wheels roll smoothly and umbrella stays put.

wheels are perfect
Size: Large, Color: Black
Really happy with this umbrella base so far. It feels sturdy and well-made, especially once filled—it definitely has the weight to keep my umbrella in place, even on windy days.
The wheels are a huge plus. I can move it around the patio without struggling, which makes adjusting for shade super easy. The square design also looks clean and doesn’t take up too much space.
Setup was simple, and it fits my umbrella perfectly. Overall, it does exactly what I needed—strong, stable, and easy to move. Great buy.
