CrÃ3nicas de la vida de las criaturas de la noche en una ciudad tan grande como el infierno.

Xavier Velasco, Premio Alfaguara 2003 con Diablo guardiàn, regresa a la literatura con la "aventura kamikaze" de contar su infancia y no inventarla.

Este libro tiene que ver con la buena vida. Por eso, con frecuencia, el narrador nos lleva a sitios de mala muerte. ¿QuiÃ(c)n no encuentra la plenitud allÃ- donde se hornean los antojos, se mima la inconciencia colectiva y el placer hace trizas al deber?

En este libro Xavier Velasco encarna a un narrador festivo y caradura, decidido a llevar la juerga hasta sus ðltimas palabras por bares, puticlubes e infiernillos afines. No quiere ser testigo, sino cÃ3mplice. Este libro es la huella literaria de un morbo con licencia, prisa y causa. Es la persecuciÃ3n romàntica del peligro, la congestiÃ3n de elÃ-xires, la conjura de lunas. La lujuriante oferta de saltar al vacÃ-o y entender cada oficio, vicio y maleficio con azoro infantil y premura adolescente.

Otros autores han opinado:

"Con Luna llena en las rocas, Velasco ha ensanchado los alcances literarios de la crÃ3nica, y al mismo tiempo ha flexibilizado la forma de la novela. Su libro, uno de los màs disfrutables de la literatura mexicana reciente, transita con buena fortuna por ambos gÃ(c)neros, redescubre las provincias màs tentadoras de la repðblica de la noche y proporciona a los nuevos licàntropos un mapa sentimental para extraviarse en ella." -Enrique Serna, La Jornada-

"Velasco busca las respuestas a preguntas no planteadas en bares, cabarets y antros de mala muerte. El libro recorre tugurios, burlesque y clubes nocturnos, que a ratos nos pareceràn disparejos, pero su encanto radica justo en eso." -AmÃ(c)rica GutiÃ(c)rrez, Chilango-

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Chronicles from the lives of the creatures of the night in a city as vast as hell itself.

Xavier Velasco, winner of the 2003 Alfaguara Prize for Diablo Guardiàn, returns to literature with the â oekamikaze adventure⠝ of recounting his childhood rather than inventing it.

This book has everything to do with the good life. Which is why, so often, the narrator takes us to dives and dead-end places. Who doesnâ (TM)t find fulfillment wherever cravings are baked, collective unconsciousness is indulged, and pleasure shatters duty?

In this book, Xavier Velasco embodies a festive and brazen narrator, determined to take the revelry to its last words through bars, brothels, and every inferno-like haunt. He doesnâ (TM)t want to be a witness â " he wants to be an accomplice. This book is the literary trace of a licensed, hurried, purposeful curiosity. It is the romantic pursuit of danger, the congestion of elixirs, the conspiracy of moons. The lush invitation to leap into the void and understand every trade, vice, and malefice with childlike astonishment and adolescent urgency.

Other authors have said:

â oeWith Full Moon on the Rocks, Velasco has broadened the literary reach of the chronicle while also loosening the form of the novel. His book, one of the most enjoyable in recent Mexican literature, travels successfully between both genres, rediscovers the most tempting provinces of the republic of the night, and offers new werewolves a sentimental map with which to lose themselves in it.⠝ â "Enrique Serna, La Jornada

â oeVelasco seeks answers to questions no one has asked in bars, cabarets, and seedy joints. The book roams through dive bars, burlesque shows, and nightclubs that may at times seem uneven, but its charm lies precisely in that.⠝ â "AmÃ(c)rica GutiÃ(c)rrez, Chilango

IT does protect from the sun.
Size: 5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: SPF 50
It protects from the sun without a doubt and lasts well. The downsides are that it leaves a greasy and "white" residue that no matter how much you rub it in.....it stays there. I use it when I am working outside and not planning on going anywhere anytime soon.

Perfect size and amount for family travel
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 6), Style: SPF 50
My usual brand raised its prices, leaving me in a bind to find a cheaper alternative that works well and is suitable for our family trips. I stumbled upon this brand and decided to give it a try. The travel-sized multi-pack is priced reasonably, and I received it promptly. I’ve decided to make this brand my go-to for travel products.
