CrÃ3nicas de la vida de las criaturas de la noche en una ciudad tan grande como el infierno.

Xavier Velasco, Premio Alfaguara 2003 con Diablo guardiàn, regresa a la literatura con la "aventura kamikaze" de contar su infancia y no inventarla.

Este libro tiene que ver con la buena vida. Por eso, con frecuencia, el narrador nos lleva a sitios de mala muerte. ¿QuiÃ(c)n no encuentra la plenitud allÃ- donde se hornean los antojos, se mima la inconciencia colectiva y el placer hace trizas al deber?

En este libro Xavier Velasco encarna a un narrador festivo y caradura, decidido a llevar la juerga hasta sus ðltimas palabras por bares, puticlubes e infiernillos afines. No quiere ser testigo, sino cÃ3mplice. Este libro es la huella literaria de un morbo con licencia, prisa y causa. Es la persecuciÃ3n romàntica del peligro, la congestiÃ3n de elÃ-xires, la conjura de lunas. La lujuriante oferta de saltar al vacÃ-o y entender cada oficio, vicio y maleficio con azoro infantil y premura adolescente.

Otros autores han opinado:

"Con Luna llena en las rocas, Velasco ha ensanchado los alcances literarios de la crÃ3nica, y al mismo tiempo ha flexibilizado la forma de la novela. Su libro, uno de los màs disfrutables de la literatura mexicana reciente, transita con buena fortuna por ambos gÃ(c)neros, redescubre las provincias màs tentadoras de la repðblica de la noche y proporciona a los nuevos licàntropos un mapa sentimental para extraviarse en ella." -Enrique Serna, La Jornada-

"Velasco busca las respuestas a preguntas no planteadas en bares, cabarets y antros de mala muerte. El libro recorre tugurios, burlesque y clubes nocturnos, que a ratos nos pareceràn disparejos, pero su encanto radica justo en eso." -AmÃ(c)rica GutiÃ(c)rrez, Chilango-

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Chronicles from the lives of the creatures of the night in a city as vast as hell itself.

Xavier Velasco, winner of the 2003 Alfaguara Prize for Diablo Guardiàn, returns to literature with the â oekamikaze adventure⠝ of recounting his childhood rather than inventing it.

This book has everything to do with the good life. Which is why, so often, the narrator takes us to dives and dead-end places. Who doesnâ (TM)t find fulfillment wherever cravings are baked, collective unconsciousness is indulged, and pleasure shatters duty?

In this book, Xavier Velasco embodies a festive and brazen narrator, determined to take the revelry to its last words through bars, brothels, and every inferno-like haunt. He doesnâ (TM)t want to be a witness â " he wants to be an accomplice. This book is the literary trace of a licensed, hurried, purposeful curiosity. It is the romantic pursuit of danger, the congestion of elixirs, the conspiracy of moons. The lush invitation to leap into the void and understand every trade, vice, and malefice with childlike astonishment and adolescent urgency.

Other authors have said:

â oeWith Full Moon on the Rocks, Velasco has broadened the literary reach of the chronicle while also loosening the form of the novel. His book, one of the most enjoyable in recent Mexican literature, travels successfully between both genres, rediscovers the most tempting provinces of the republic of the night, and offers new werewolves a sentimental map with which to lose themselves in it.⠝ â "Enrique Serna, La Jornada

â oeVelasco seeks answers to questions no one has asked in bars, cabarets, and seedy joints. The book roams through dive bars, burlesque shows, and nightclubs that may at times seem uneven, but its charm lies precisely in that.⠝ â "AmÃ(c)rica GutiÃ(c)rrez, Chilango

Room Divider That Gives Instant “This Is a Separate Space Now” Energy
Size: 3 Panel 12FT W
The Siebwin 3 Panel Folding Privacy Screen is surprisingly effective at changing the feel of a room without requiring construction, commitment, or somebody yelling about load bearing walls. The 12 foot width gives a substantial amount of coverage, making it useful for creating privacy, dividing open areas, blocking visual clutter, or setting up temporary sections within larger rooms. This saved us a ton of time and money in our new studio and enabled us to create a kitchen and office in one room. The wider feet make a huge difference because flimsy room dividers that collapse every time someone exhales too aggressively are deeply annoying. This one feels more stable and grounded once positioned. The folding design makes it easy to move around or adjust depending on the space, and it folds down relatively compactly when not in use. It is basically the introvert curtain wall of dreams. The material has a clean, neutral look that blends well into different room styles without screaming “temporary office cubicle panic.” It works well for apartments, studios, shared spaces, dressing areas, or simply hiding the mountain of chaos you swear you are going to organize tomorrow. Practical, portable, and refreshingly easy to use without turning setup into a three hour emotional event.

It's 2 panels holding 1 big privacy screen. Can't use as 2 separate 4' panels, but works great.
Size: 2 Panel 8FT W
This 2 panel privacy screen works well. Assembly was very straight forward, with easily labeled tubes. My son and I had it together in about 10 minutes, which was probably 3 minutes of me telling him to quit playing around and hand me the parts. It feels very sturdy, not likely to fall over or anything. The material fits well, with the Velcro being very strong. Measurements are all very accurate, with all pieces attaching properly. We have a similar privacy screen at work that we have to try and stretch out because the top and bottom Velcro doesn't fit quite right... this model does not have any issues though. The material is thin and light weight, but solid black so that you can't see anything through or behind it. I definitely think it's a great deal for the money. What I think would have given it 5 stars though, is if you had 2 totally separate 4' panels instead of 2 panels with one big screen. It really wouldn't cost any extra to make it so that the screen was in 2 pieces and you could use it as 2 separate panels instead of having to use it as one big panel. It says 2 panel folding privacy screens, but it's really one big one that folds in the middle.

I’ve been using this room divider to separate my space from my daughter’s, and it has worked out really well. It provides just the right amount of privacy while still keeping the room feeling open and comfortable. The design is simple yet stylish, so it blends nicely with our decor. It’s also lightweight and easy to move when needed, which is a big plus. The material feels durable and well-made, not flimsy at all. Overall, it’s a practical and attractive solution for shared spaces, and I’m very happy with this purchase. I would definitely recommend it to others.

Great Room Divider
Color: Black
This product is a great room divider that decent quality and worth the price tag. The look is sleek and fits seamlessly into any room without complaint. The assembly was easy to follow and the quality is long lasting. Not only that, I need it as my sons share a room and we’re looking for some privacy. The divider is able to extend across a decently large area really divide the room as it has 4 panels. Overall, this is a great product for its cost and if your looking for a room divider that’s not too costly, this is the pick.

Great for creating a workspace
Color: Grey
I needed a room divider that could be easily folded for storing to put behind my chair during my work calls. This works perfectly! Was very easy to put together. Lightweight but sturdy enough that it won’t fall over.
