Publisher's Summary

Novela ganadora del Pulitzer 2008.

La vida nunca ha sido fácil para Óscar Wao, un dominicano dulce, obeso y desastroso que vive con su madre y su hermana disfuncional en un gueto de Nueva Jersey.

Óscar sueña con convertirse en un J. R. R. Tolkien dominicano y, por encima de todo, sueña con encontrar el amor de su vida. Pero puede que Óscar nunca alcance sus metas debido a una extraña maldición que ha estado en su familia por generaciones, enviando a los Wao a prisión, predisponiéndolos a accidentes trágicos y, ante todo, al desamor.

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.
