Praise
De Publishers Weekly en Español:
“Con una prosa ágil y llena de imágenes calibradas por la luz de los atardeceres en el desierto, Celia C. Pérez (La primera regla del punk) da voz a los personajes de Tumbos, una novela donde el tema de la familia sirve como eje al reunir todas las preguntas que podríamos hacer a nuestros abuelos, padres e hijos.”
“Con arrebatos de melancolía, diálogos de factura impecable, y una trama que se desarrolla con la agilidad de una road movie, Pérez logró crear un mundo donde cada quien busca responder, con paciencia y cariño, qué significan los lazos de sangre, la ambición, y ser hija.”
From Publishers Weekly in Spanish:
“With an agile prose —in a book full of images calibrated by the light of the sunsets in the desert— Celia C. Pérez (La primera regla del punk) gives voice to the characters of Tumbos, a novel where a family story serves as the narrative axis that brings together the many questions we do to our grandparents, parents, and children.”
“…melancholic moments, impeccable dialogues, and a plot as nimble as a road movie, Pérez manages to create a world where everyone seeks to respond, with patience and affection, to what blood ties, ambition and being a daughter mean.”
