Short description

El autor muestra la cara de una Habana sórdida, sucia, habitada por gentes sin escrúpulos, marginales por obligación que únicamente pretenden sobrevivir las próximas veinticuatro horas.

Extended description

Seres cercados por un medio que se hace más hostil a medida que pasan las semanas, en el que su obsesión se reduce al intento de escapar de un entorno irrespirable, de una jungla sin regla aparente como no sea la de que "vale todo". - Denis Fortún, Fernandina de Jagua.

En los 20 relatos que integran el libro de Merino, convergen marginalidad, jerga, y la picaresca como mecanismo de supervivencia. - Luis de la Paz, Diario Las Américas

La adversidad de la Isla, de "la maldita circunstancia del agua por todas partes", es aquí testigo presencial, telón de fondo y protagonista indiscutible. Todo se confabula en los relatos de este cuaderno de escritura precisa y ágil, descarnada y pujante... - Armando Añel, Cuba Inglesa

¿Cómo se relaciona su obra con el realismo sucio estadounidense de autores como Salinger o Bukowski? - Entrevista por Armando de Armas, Martinoticias
