"Que nadie se confunda con esta mamadera de gallo -un libro de cuentos que sumados dan una novela salvaje- porque no es una autoficción, sino una autosátira con vocación de autoexorcismo: una terapia de choque que emplea todas las formas de lucha, desde los pantallazos hasta los poemas que no tienen versos sino chistes, para liberarse de las frustraciones brutales que tiende a traer la carrera de escritor colombiano". --Ricardo Silva Romero

Exitoso para fracasar, excesivo con sus borracheras, excelente cocinero y trapeador, escritor desconocido..., el narrador de esta colección de cuentos ofrece una mirada fresca e hilarante sobre las aventuras y desventuras del mundillo literario y sobre cómo este no resulta ni tan sofisticado ni tan pomposo como se creería. El protagonista fracasa en reemplazar a García Márquez en México, fracasa como invitado a un festival literario, fracasa dando un autógrafo, fracasa como ganador de un premio literario, fracasa como protagonista de un escándalo, y fracasaría como escritor... si hubiera decidido no serlo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Don't be fooled by appearances: This is a collection of stories that, taken together, add up to a wild ride of a novel. Not quite autofiction, it is self-satire aiming at self-exorcism. It is shock therapy that experiments with a range of formats, from screenshots to poems comprised of jokes instead of verses, to vent the frustrations of opting for a career as a writer in Colombia." -Ricardo Silva Romero

An expert at failure, a binge drinker, great cook and writer of books no one's heard of... the narrator of these stories offers a refreshing and hilarious look at the adventures and misadventures of life in the literary world, which turns out to be not as sophisticated or pompous as one might think. The protagonist fails to replace García Márquez in Mexico, fails his guest appearance at a literary festival, fails at signing an autograph, fails as the winner of a literary prize, fails at scandal, and would fail as a writer... if he had decided not to be one.

Awful.
Color: Black, Size: 22"- 4 Panel
Easiest one star review ever. I'm writing this with bloody fingers from assembling this. Multiple poles were bent, none of the pole connectors worked, the hex wrench broke in my hand, the screws didn't really go into the holes provided (I had to get a friend with a press drill to widen the holes to make it work), there are sharp edges on the poles where there is a seam, and doesn't look that great once assembled. Easy do not buy, the only reason I didn't return is because it would have been tough to disassemble the half I got through in the first 5 hours of building (mostly spent fixing the product delivered)

Clean and functional
Color: Grey
This room divider is very functional and sturdy for a single-panel divider and stands securely without wobbling. The extra-thick material provides great privacy and helps visually separate the space. The neutral grey color looks clean and modern, blending nicely with my décor. It was easy to set up right out of the box and didn’t require any complicated assembly. The height and width are perfect for creating a defined my home office space.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Color: Grey
Very satisfied with this room divider. The construction is sturdy and stable, easy to assemble, and stands firmly without extra support. It separates the space well and provides good privacy. The grey color looks stylish and neat, blending perfectly with the interior. The quality fully met my expectations.

Not so good as expected.
Color: Grey
Pretty poor quality partition. It should hold up to normal indoor ware as long as to don’t touch it. If it is used in a garage (as I did) it will collapse.when subjected to any kind of a breeze at all. I had to reinforce the partition with cross-wires for added support and it was still not enough.

Functional but not attractive
Color: Black, Color: Black
I purchased this to hide my cats liter boxes as he refuses to use them unless they are on the finished side of our basement which is also my kids play room. This functions as I’d expect. It isn’t great to look at but better than cat boxes. Overall it might make a good backdrop if needed. My only complaint is the hex/allen wrench doesn’t fit in the screws provided. If you don’t have an alternative tool that’s a smaller hex it will be annoying to put together.
