La Constelación del Perro / The Dog Stars [Spanish]

By Peter Heller

Los humanos casi se han extinguido.

Big Hig no est infectado, as que sigue aqu . Intenta mantenerse con vida junto a su perro gracias a un peque o avi n, un libro de poemas y algunas latas de Coca-Cola.

Su esposa tambi n ha muerto (est tan solo que hasta ha inventado una constelaci n para ella). Incluso cuando parece que no hay nada que hacer, l quiere continuar. Pero sobrevivir ya no es suficiente.

«Ten a un libro sobre las estrellas, pero ya no lo tengo. Mi memoria me vale, aunque no es estelar, ja. As que me invento las constelaciones. Hice la del Oso y la de la Cabra, pero igual no las situ donde tendr an que estar, hice algunas para los animales que exist an entonces, los que yo conoc a. Hice una para Melissa, como si en las noches de invierno estuviera ah arriba, entera, alta y sonriente, mir ndome. Mir ndome desde el cielo mientras la escarcha me forma arrugas en las pesta as y me empluma la barba.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From the author of The River: In this "end-of-the-world novel more like a rapturous beginning" (San Francisco Chronicle), Hig somehow survived the flu pandemic that killed everyone he knows. His gripping story is "an ode to friendship between two men...the strong bond between a human and a dog, and a reminder of what is worth living for" (Minneapolis Star-Tribune).

Hig's wife is gone, his friends are dead, and he lives in the hangar of a small abandoned airport with his dog, Jasper, and a mercurial, gun-toting misanthrope named Bangley.

But when a random transmission beams through the radio of his 1956 Cessna, the voice ignites a hope deep inside him that a better life exists outside their tightly controlled perimeter. Risking everything, he flies past his point of no return and follows its static-broken trail, only to find something that is both better and worse than anything he could ever hope for.
