ENGLISH DESCRIPTION This is the story of a boy who would prefer not to talk about his childhood.Xavier Velasco, winner of the Premio Alfaguara 2003 with Diablo guardian, returns with this kamikaze adventure to recounting his childhood. The one in the painting is a desperate boy. He needs to save himself and doesn't know of what. He wants to get out but doesn't know how. To be a kid is to understand that the road to hell is a short one. One arrives there without knowing, one escapes without thinking, one comes back without meaning to. It is not that childhood is hard, but rather that childhood phantoms are invincible. The boy of this story refuses to tell it. He allows himself everything... except to let the story die.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers1.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/6/07/382/420/6073824203_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "17.95", "online_price" : "17.95", "our_price" : "17.95", "club_price" : "17.95", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
