Synopsis "oficinista, el (novela) (in Spanish)"

¿De qué es capaz un hombre por aferrarse a un sueño? Una novela hipnótica. irónica y trágica

Hombres y mujeres completamente normales avanzan a diario hacia su escritorio en una ciudad arrasada por atentados guerrilleros. amenazada por hordas de hambrientos. niños asesinos y perros clonados. vigilada por helicópteros artillados y bautizada con lluvia ácida. Entre ellos. un oficinista dispuesto a la humillación con tal de conservar su puesto… hasta que se enamora y se permite soñar con ser otro. ¿De qué abyecciones es capaz un hombre por aferrarse a un sueño?

El oficinista cuenta una historia que pasó ayer. pero que aún no ha sucedido. y. sin embargo. transcurre ahora. No es que el futuro esté cerca. es que tal vez ya pasó. Y nosotros no nos hemos dado cuenta. ocupadísimos como estábamos en cuidar un trabajo. un sueldo. una apariencia. Esta novela encierra una antiutopía. un mundo Ballard. pero también Dostoievski.
