Publisher's Summary

"Uno tras otro, allí, a la intemperie. Docenas. Mutilados, exhibidos. Sin sepultura. Una imagen que Laila sólo ha visto en las películas. Ideal para un premio de fotoperiodismo.” El infierno se desata en Irak tras la invasión y una mujer busca entre los muertos a su amor. Bagdad es un cadáver cuyos trozos se disputan las aves de rapiña y ella desafiante se enfrenta a cientos de almas sin fe y sin memoria que asesinan a quien busca detenerlos. Derivada de un blog diario de mas de 100 entradas que el autor mantiene en 2008, El jardín devastado es una novela semiautobiográfica que transporta al lector de Iraq a México a varias ciudades Universitarias de la costa este, todo moviendose entre lo real y un espiritualismo abstracto. Las secuelas del 9/11, la crítica de lapolítica de los EEUU, las anomalías en las elecciones de México … todos se juntan para formar una historia sobre como enfrentar los acontecimientos actuales.

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.
