About This Book

Una colección de crónicas cortas que recrean las charlas de sobremesa mediante viñetas y anécdotas, ofreciendo observaciones irónicas sobre la vida social, el teatro, el gusto del público, la moda femenina y las convenciones de género. A través de humor y sutileza el autor examina costumbres urbanas, hipocresías y pequeñas pasiones cotidianas, alternando reflexión y sátira en un tono conversacional que privilegia el comentario agudo sobre la escena pública y las relaciones sociales.
