Juan Carlos Botero regresa a la ficción con una novela sobre la violencia, la culpa y el poder del azar.

«La prosa de Botero es de una precisión quirúrgica: narra los acontecimientos como si fuera un escalpelo abriendo la piel de la realidad». -Mario Mendoza

El encuentro fortuito entre dos amigos de la infancia es el detonante de esta novela, la cual nos lleva a recorrer la vida de un empresario exitoso y adinerado con un pasado enigmático. Su nombre: Sebastián Sarmiento. Su tragedia: haber perdido a sus seres más queridos. La consecuencia: un sentimiento de culpa que jamás lo abandona. La historia de Sebastián toma rumbos insospechados debido a circunstancias tan simples como una rama seca tirada en el camino, una llamada realizada en el instante preciso y el andar a la deriva por una calle cualquiera.

Esas casualidades, y muchas más, son las que determinan el destino del protagonista, y Juan Carlos Botero se vale de ellas para demostrar que no existen hechos intrascendentes, pues un detalle, por más mínimo que parezca, puede cambiar radicalmente el curso de los acontecimientos y desatar una ola de eventos inesperados. Nuestra fortuna deja de pertenecernos cuando se lanzan los dados y nos convertimos, para ventura o desventura, en caprichos de la suerte.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

«Botero's writing has a surgical precision: he tells all the events as if he owns a scalpel to open the skin of our reality». -Mario Mendoza

Roberto Mendoza is a writer who reconstructs the life of an old schoolmate named Sebastián Sarmiento, a rich, widowed businessman from Bogotá. Throughout the novel, Roberto composes the story of Sebastián Sarmiento, who at first appears to be an enigmatic character. We learn that his father was assassinated when Sebastián was a child, that he had to leave the country, that he later returned and became a communications magnate, that he was kidnapped, and that he was finally forced to flee Colombia for good.

Roberto's narration is complemented by letters in which Sebastián speaks in the first person. In these missives, Sebastián brings out the feelings of guilt that he carries for the death of his father, his wife, and his friend Rafael, all of whom died due to casual events he instigated himself. This sense of guilt will never abandon Sebastián, and it will transform into the collective guilt that all Colombians carry because of our convulsive and violent past.

Still Searching for the Right Scent
Scent: Sandalwood + Amber, Size: 30.3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Smells great and lathers well, but it’s super hard to get any volume out of the bottle, and the scent really isn’t that strong or distinctive. I don’t think I’ll buy this again and will keep looking. I’ve tried Salt & Stone Body Wash with Antioxidants for Deep Moisture and ORIBE Cote d'Azur Replenishing Body Wash as well; they’re good, but they don’t offer any noticeable scent once you’re out of the shower. I have a very sensitive nose, so I know it’s not just me.

Best Clay for Natural Look and Feel!
As a hairstylist with a very strong focus on men’s hair for over 20 years, I applaud the guys at Highland for what they are doing. A product line with quality and minimal ingredients we can actually read and understand. This clay is what I have always wanted!! Sure you’ll see some reviews talking about how there isn’t enough hold or it’s not even a medium hold when it says it’s strong hold on the package, but you have to understand, when a product is this clean, strong hold isn’t going to feel like the strong hold in the garbage products most of us have used. This is a strong hold, in terms of keeping your best natural look all day. Something you can work into place, then continuously run your hands through all day and it still looks great. The men’s clay from Davines does a wonderful job at this too, but there’s something about the finish of this product that literally brings out such a healthy natural look. Not shiny either and definitely does not give you a wet look out of the shower. If you see that kind of review, the guy most likely has greasy hair, is using cheap conditioner, or perhaps applied too much. Don’t over use this product in your application, you get the best out it. Amazing work Highland, keep it up!

Amazing product, definitely recommend!
Initially I was very skeptical about buying this product and kept talking myself out of it, did that a few times. I was under the impression that this was just an incredibly well orchestrated marketing campaign(it kept popping up all over social media) and people just out there overhyping it all. Yesterday I finally decided to give it a try and I have to say, BOY WAS I WRONG, this is probably the best hair product I’ve used in 15 years. Gives a natural matte look to your hair, it’s not greasy, gives plenty of volume and holds your styling in place in a very natural manner. The product also smells pretty good, HIGHLY recommend if you’re having doubts.
