Overview

Este escenario digno de Comala es un homenaje a la obra de Juan Rulfo, una novela que reconfigura en clave quijotesca el mito en que se convierte Pedro Páramo, todo con el sello inconfundible de Élmer Mendoza, una de las voces más importantes en la literatura de su generación. Cóbraselo caro es un libro que nos habla sobre la importancia de la literatura, la migración, la memoria, el hogar, los vivos y los muertos.

Nick es dueño de tres exitosos restaurantes en Chicago. Goza de una vida acomodada, pero con apenas unos cuantos recuerdos lejanos, hasta que una noche sus padres se le aparecen en una visión espectral y le instan a regresar a la tierra que sus ancestros habitaron. Así es como Nick y Lily, su esposa, comienzan un viaje hacia México: él sigue la misión de sus padres con toda la intención de encontrar las piedras en que se convirtió Pedro Páramo; ella, preocupada por el estado mental que este recorrido fantasmagórico ocasiona en su esposo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

This Comala-worthy setting is a tribute to the work of Juan Rulfo, a novel that reimagines in a Quixotic vein the myth that Pedro Páramo becomes, all bearing the unmistakable stamp of Élmer Mendoza, one of the most important voices in the literature of his generation. Make Him Pay Dearly is a book that speaks to us about the importance of literature, migration, memory, home, the living, and the dead.

Nick owns three successful restaurants in Chicago. He enjoys a comfortable life, but has only a few distant memories, until one night his parents appear to him in a ghostly vision and urge him to return to the land his ancestors once inhabited. That is how Nick and Lily, his wife, set out on a journey to Mexico: he is on a mission from his parents, fully intent on finding the stones into which Pedro Páramo was transformed; she worries about the mental state this ghostly journey causes in her husband.
