It is also a regular contributor to newspapers and occasional literary translator, and co-director for a decade building magazine The Problem of Yorick.
As published on its official website, the synopsis of the book states that "unexplained noises that slip through the walls, two estranged brothers because of some almost microscopic critters, a chronically depressed responding to spam that finds your e-mail, a prisoner trapped in a huge apartment tower, a boy who suffers bizarre mutations, two elderly people who live surrounded by ghostly presences, a man in love with a young prostitute in the East .... "
With echoes of Borges, Raymond Carver, Cortazar, including Poe and Stephen King, the stories that make up 'Communion' Eloy M.
Cebrián squeezed to the limit the possibilities of the short story back to expose the hidden reality, the "twilight zone" where all good stories run.
An exquisite language, unparalleled expertise to evoke atmosphere and characters, and the courage to address the fundamental issues (love, death, loneliness) from new perspectives and overflowing with imagination, all this confirms the author as one of the strongest values of the current narrative scene.
Twelve stories between the everyday and the fabulous, among the sordid and sensual, between the lyrical and elegiac.
Twelve stories full of humanity that will sink like a scalpel in the skin of the reader.
Pages unforgettable for anyone who dares to drive.
