El amigo del héroe
Par Alvaro Enrigue. 2012

second place for many years.' So begins The Hero's Friend, first published in 1998 and remastered for this edition. This story by Álvaro Enrigue dusts off the naivety and vanity of childhood: Ponchito, a child like any other, played at being the hero. A memorable literary exercise. A sobering experience. Enrigue puts himself at the feet of his protagonist and relives the dialogues of two middle school kids who in their relentless fight against crime are forced to face the ultimate and most unexpected consequences." -- Translation provided by NLSThe cowboy's best friend's sister (Sweet Water Ranch #04)
