by Julián Herbert (Author)
La vida de Guadalupe Chávez, prostituta enferma de leucemia, narrada con mucho amor y crudeza por su hijo escritor.
Premio Jaén de Novela 2011
Premio de Novela Elena Poniatowska 2012
En Canción de Tumba, el siglo XXI nos respira en la nuca con su aliento más fiero. Novela descarnada, pero sabia y poética en su crudeza, se mueve en la línea de El desbarrancadero, de Fernando Vallejo. Creo que no hay en castellano nadie tan genialmente contemporáneo como Julián Herbert. -Laura Restrepo
Jaen Novel Prize 2011.
Elena Poniatowska Novel Prize 2012.
"In The Grave Song, the twenty-first century breathes down our necks with its most ferocious breath. A stark novel, though wise and poetic in its own crudeness, moving along the lines of The Edge of the Abyss, by Fernando Vallejo. I do not think there is anyone as brilliantly contemporary in Spanish, as Julián Herbert." --Laura Restrepo
The Grave Song tells the story of Guadalupe Chávez' eventful life, a prostitute and the narrator's mother, heading throughout the book towards her own demise from leukemia. Guadalupe's disease presses an autobiographical exercise upon the protagonist, immersing him in his childhood and youth, at the time he delves into the complex relationship he has with his mother, his own children, and his country, Mexico, devastated by corruption, violence, and destruction. Julián Herbert's novel takes the skeletons out of the closet, creates a genuine and feverish narrative voice, and portrays a soulless Mexico, inhabited by characters that are already part of the best literature in the Spanish language. The Grave Song is poetry, music, and an inexhaustible read.
