26/08/2010 - "I'm in the other lane of literary objectivism, no I'm interested in people writing away from writing anything that does not own, you do not know what you think, it does not, which does not take, that does not sweat the writer ...", said Marcelo Scalona, \u200b\u200bduring the presentation of his new novel Carrier. The work is the second part of the city library and bank, Homo Sapiens Publishing, led by the author and intended to disseminate local production. The meeting, which attracted a large audience, was the opinion of two experts in narrative: Roberto Maritano Retamoso and Alma.

If futurism, gender mix, black portrait, realism and surrealism is what contains The carrier, which was debated for nearly two hours in a talk presenters, on time, turned around the Maritano summoned to Retamoso from "tort world" recreated by Scalona. "At first," said Retamoso-the story is consistent with the novels of Chandler or Hammett, where the criminal is only the manifestation of social nature, characterized by immorality, corruption and social injustice of the capitalist system " .

According to the critic, at first reading may lead to believe that you have in front of a detective story but then the text exceeds and surpasses the canonical forms of black police "Cobra dyes fantastic the futuristic tale of prophecy, poetic fiction. Thus, it calls into question the realism of all police, especially black. "

LITERARY AND SOCIAL TRAVEL

Retamoso To Maritano and the image of the narrator of The carrier is an "alter ego of author" and his characters have characteristics "Onettian" Scalona added comment that "some similarities" with the character of the novel Life imprisonment, Ricardo Gil Piglia or Wolf, Rodolfo Fogwill building. "Wolf, was an alter ego of Fogwill" he said, referring to the nickname he used the recently deceased writer to sign certain articles made during the last military dictatorship.

Although literary experts who presented Carrier concluded that the story is "a mix of genres," Lilian Neuman, a columnist for the English magazine La Vanguardia says the cover of the book is "a crime novel hard, merciless. A social and literary journey in a city that supports everything (...) the theft, corrupt commissioners negotiated between senior officials, the magic of a melody lost and reckless conspiracy. "

VA FOR MORE HOMO SAPIENS

One most important aspects to emphasize is the quality of the edition: a work of almost 400 pages, sewn (a fact that only looks at the big publishers Buenos Aires) with a cover design, by Emiliano and Edgardo Juarez, who had a strong impact visual, and predicting the intensity of the content.

The first title of the collection Shore City and was the storybook I , Miguel Sedoff. Forthcoming publications to deliver the Editorial Homo Sapiens will be Sebastian Ries, Patricia Suarez, Beatriz Vignoli and Daniel Briguet. No doubt a big bet after the dissemination of local narrative.
