Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 846630245X, Mass Market Paperback)

A road trip takes four people into a mental and metaphorical labyrinth that will end with an unexpected tragic ritual. The world of American myths and the key questions of the European culture converge in this ambitious and successful novel that depicts a Mexican man of this century tormented by doubts about the present, the weight of the past, and fear of the future.

Description in spanish: El Domingo de Ramos de 1965 cuatro personajes inician un viaje hacia Veracruz y se detienen en Cholula, ciudad de las pirámides aztecas. En el laberinto de sus galerías se internarán las dos parejas, como en un descenso a los infiernos, que concluirá con una tragedia ritual inesperada.

"Ficción total" en palabras del propio autor, "Cambio de piel" indaga en el mito del México prehispánico y en el holocausto europeo a través de la memoria de sus protagonistas para decirnos que, en definitiva, todas las violencias son la misma violencia.
