A man dressed as Charly García becomes the icon of a disturbing cult; on a remote island, a dragon’s scale becomes the object of desire for its inhabitants; an alcoholic pilot discovers that airplanes fly for miraculous reasons; in Tepoztlán, a boy opens portals to another dimension where reality intertwines with the world of the dead… Fathers, children, lovers, and artists appear as the protagonists of these disconcerting stories, which are also portraits of male sensibilities in crisis, driven by the need to believe, touch, remember, and love in unexpected ways.
From religious visions, lysergic dreams, and pacts with the devil, to strange rites of a postmodern world, the twelve stories in *Final feliz* explore desire, insecurity, the need for validation, the wear and tear of marriage, fatherhood, and nostalgia—all filtered through a sensibility that blends tenderness with the absurd and fantasy with self-awareness.
«Rangel treats us to stories coated, like candy, with sharp wit and biting irony, which envelop deep, unsettling, and even philosophical tales. A delight to read from start to finish»
