Synopsis "Broken "

‘You can’t ask for more emotionally moving entertainment’ Stephen KingA riveting collection of original fiction from the revered #1 international bestselling author of The Cartel trilogy and The ForceNo matter how you come into this world, you come out broken…In six intense, haunting short novels, Don Winslow returns to the themes that are the hallmarks of his acclaimed body of work – crime, corruption, vengeance, justice, loss, betrayal, guilt, and redemption – to explore the savagery and nobility that drive and define the human condition.In Broken, Winslow creates a world of high-level thieves and low-life crooks, obsessed cops and jaded private detectives, dope dealers and government agents, bounty hunters and fugitives. Diverse and richly drawn, these characters – some familiar, others new – are lost souls driving without headlights on the dark highway of modern America. Set in New Orleans and Hawaii, Southern California and south Texas, each story in this collection is distinctively Winslow, shaped by his trademark blend of insight, humanity, humor, drama, and consummate literary craftsmanship.A powerful, gripping collection of tales that will become classics of crime fiction, Broken is Don Winslow at his nerve-shattering, heartbreaking best.“A master of thrills shows his range, and his bite . . . [Winslow is] a writer from whom others can learn the ropes.” New York TimesPraise for Don Winslow‘A huge, immersive, violent, compassionate read’ Ian Rankin‘He’s a master’ Michael Connelly‘One of the great literary achievements of the century so far’ Daily Telegraph‘Such crime writing deserves nothing less than a Pulitzer Prize’ Evening Standard‘A new crime classic … a stirring, stupendous novel’ Sunday Times‘He is a pleasure to read’ The Times‘Brutal and brilliant, this is crime’s Game of Thrones’ Sun‘A furious, impassioned novel’ Washington Post‘Devastating and timely … a hybrid The Godfather and War and Peace’ New York Times

Don Winslow nació en 1953 en Nueva York, Estados Unidos, y creció en Rhode Island. Desde joven mostró interés por la lectura, influenciado por su madre, que era bibliotecaria. Su vida profesional fue diversa: trabajó como investigador privado, guía de safaris en África, director de cine y consultor legal, experiencias que luego alimentarían su narrativa.

Se dio a conocer como escritor con novelas de crimen y suspenso, aunque fue con su trilogía sobre el narcotráfico —compuesta por El poder del perro, El cártel y La frontera— que alcanzó reconocimiento internacional. En estas obras explora con crudeza y realismo la violencia, la corrupción política y el impacto social del crimen organizado, especialmente en la frontera entre México y Estados Unidos.

Además de escritor, Winslow ha sido un crítico abierto del sistema político y judicial estadounidense. En los últimos años, ha declarado que dejará de escribir ficción para enfocarse en el activismo político. Su estilo narrativo es directo, cinematográfico y cargado de tensión, lo que ha llevado a que varias de sus novelas sean adaptadas al cine y la televisión. Considerado uno de los grandes narradores del crimen contemporáneo, su obra sigue siendo influyente y provocadora.
