Una novela única en clave autoficcional sobre los egos revueltos del boom de la literatura latinoamericana. Publicada en 1981, cuando José Donoso iniciaba su regreso a Chile, El jardín de al lado es una novela sobre el fracaso, aunque también sobre la salvación. Julio Méndez, novelista chileno ya en la cincuentena, exiliado en España y obsesionado por un éxito que no llega, se debate con su ansiedad y sus intuiciones sobre la propia mediocridad, al tiempo que se ve atormentado por las figuras de una todopoderosa agente literaria y del máximo escritor de su tiempo. Desgarrada y tragicómica, cotidiana y patética, la novela explora los laberintos de la marginalidad interior, así como el destierro, las miserias físicas y las ambigüedades del deseo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A Chilean writer named Julio and his wife Gloria are beset by worries, constantly bickering about money, their writing, and their son (who may or may not be plying the oldest trade in Marrakesh). When Julio's boyhood best friend, now a famous artist, lends the couple his luxurious Madrid apartment for the summer, it is an escape for both -- in particular for Julio, who fantasizes about the garden next door and the erotic life of the lovely young aristocrat who inhabits it. But Julio's life and career unravel in Madrid: he is rebuffed by a famous literary agent, who detests him and his novel; his son's friend from Marrakesh moves in and causes havoc; and Gloria begins to drink. In the face of pitiless adversity, Julio's talent inexorably begins to fade. With The Garden Next Door, Jose Donoso has rendered a carefully crafted and bitterly comic meditation on gardens, deceit, and the nature of a writer's muse.Shipping Notes

Perfect case
Color: Purple Pink
Great protection for my IPad. I’m always dropping something. This case was pretty easy to install and has the protection over the glass front. No problem using the iPad with the cover. Cute colors and has a loop to store the pen

Very versatile!
Color: Colorful Pink
I got this iPad case for myself and my two year-old daughter as we both use this iPad. This case has definitely held up very well. I love the material because it’s nonslip so it’s easy for my two-year-old to hold I also love the movable and adjustable prop on the back that also doubles as a handle. There is two spots to put your Apple Pencil, so that’s very neat. It is a little bit bulky, but it is very protective and I think that is a good trade-off. There is also a cover for the charging port to prevent dust from getting in there or any spills. At first I was a little bit weary about it having a built-in screen protector, but it’s very clear and does not interfere with using the screen at all, so it’s actually a nice touch. I really love this thing and think it is worth it!

Great case
Color: Purple Pink
My daughter loves it and the color is marvelous. It was easy to put on, I would buy again worth my money. Very sterdy as good for kids that love to drop their tablet. I like how its has a strap so your kid can carry it on their over there shoulders.
