Book Description:

We all bear witness that truth does not always mean anything. With this maxim, Vicente Leñero delights us with a volume full of surprises, where truth and lies have been wisely blended together. Is truth or fiction really important in these stories? Some appear to faithfully record a life; some are evidently the work of a fertile imagination. We all know people capable of forging the unpublished works of Juan Rulfo, or impersonate Gael García Bernal even with no resemblance.
