Mil Cosas - by Juan Tallon (Paperback)

About the Book

This novel follows a single day in the life of Travis and Anne, a couple overwhelmed by the relentless pace of modern urban life: exhausting work, impossible schedules, parenting, stress, and an endless to-do list. On the eve of their vacation, under suffocating heat and with countless urgent matters to resolve, every minor setback feels like a crisis. He fears losing his job as his magazine approaches deadline; she's on the verge of collapse in a toxic workplace. Told with the tension of a thriller, the novel sharply portrays the chaos of everyday life and the constant pressure of a world ruled by urgency. A powerful new example of Juan Tallón's keen, witty talent for capturing the anxieties of our time.
