«Javier Argüello es, sin duda, uno de los escritores actuales más interesantes en nuestra lengua». -Zenda

En este deslumbrante libro, Javier Argüello reúne siete cuentos de estirpe fantástica, deudores y renovadores de la tradición fundada por Gógol, Poe, Maupassant o Borges. Dueño de un estilo sutil y eficaz, Argüello nos cuenta historias inquietantes y turbadoras, a veces espeluznantes, hechas con la materia que se extiende tras el fi lo de la realidad.

Cada una de estas siete piezas nos hipnotiza tanto por el bien medido ritmo de su prosa como por el dibujo de los personajes y su trama envolvente y sobrecogedora. En la primera, por ejemplo, Argüello narra las vicisitudes de un hombre que cree que escribe un relato cuando en verdad tan solo es el personaje de otro relato que vive atrapado en la telaraña de la ficción. En otro cuento nos mantendrá en vilo con la increíble y maravillosa historia de un hombre a quien un profesor de astronomía ordena que construya una casa al revés bajo la tierra de su jardín, pues algo horrible está a punto de suceder en el mundo... También podremos asistir a la inaudita confesión de un enchufe, una voz que contará la odisea que le llevó a habitar allí dentro; o a la aventura de un joven que viaja por Europa y se encuentra en Londres con un escritor del siglo XIX que ha pactado con el diablo para viajar al futuro y comprobar así su posible ingreso en la Historia de la Literatura; una pequeña obra maestra sobre la textura del tiempo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Javier Argüello is, without doubt, one of the most intriguing authors writing in Spanish today." -Zenda

This stunning volume includes seven fantastic stories that both recall and reinvent a genre founded by Gogol, Poe, Maupassant and Borges. In his subtle but efficient style, Argüello crafts unsettling, sometimes terrifying tales that test our notion of reality.

Each of the seven pieces captivates the reader with the rhythm of its prose and compelling characters and storylines. These include the dilemma of a man who thinks he is writing a story but is in fact a character in someone else's, trapping him in a web of fiction. We are kept in suspense by the incredible story of a worker hired by an astronomy professor to build an underground house, because something horrible is about to happen to Earth. We hear the voice of a person trapped inside an electrical socket, who describes the odyssey that led him there. A young man traveling around Europe meets a nineteenth-century author who made a pact with the Devil, allowing him to travel forward in time to see if his works have made an impression on literature. In short, this book is a small treasure about the nature and texture of time.

Simple yet easy must have for discerning coffee drinkers
Color: Black&Silver
I seem to never get the same results from my coffee machine and it varied even more with the new brand that we just bought. I now have to make more adjustments with the water temperature, based on age, type of beans, etc. That affects the amount of ground dispensed and consistency in the shot until I get a new batch dialed in. So the only way to regulate these changes is to weigh both the beans and water. Using this little scale has made things easier, less frustrating and more predictable. What’s awesome is that it will automatically begin the timer with the first drop and stop when the pressure remains constant. Simple yet easy and super convenient. If you are looking for a great little digital scale this should do the trick. Highly recommended.

Great Digital Scale!!
Color: Black&Silver
The Maestri House S2 scale has been clutch for dialing in my espresso shots. Memphis heat or not, this thing stays accurate and steady. The timer starts up quick, the readings are fast, and the compact size fits perfectly under my Breville without feeling cramped. It’s built solid, charges by USB‑C, and the precision really shows when you’re trying to get that perfect pull.

Has fit perfectly into my morning espresso
Color: Black&Silver
This seems to me to be an excellent small kitchen scale. I am new to the complexities of espresso making and have begun using this scale every morning to measure my dose and output. It is working just fine. Easy to operate, keep clean and store. I did not give it 5 stars because I have limited comparisons but I don’t expect and will not bother looking for anything better.

Perfectly fits what I needed for my espresso habit!
Color: Black&Silver
This Maestri House mini coffee scale is a great little tool for espresso and pour-over. The size is compact enough to fit under a portafilter or cup, and the 0.1g accuracy makes dialing in coffee much easier. I like the built-in timer, rechargeable USB-C battery, and clean black-and-silver look. It feels precise, practical, and easy to keep near the espresso machine. Great value for anyone who wants more consistent coffee.

Maestro House Mini Coffee Scale
I have begun to drink tea, pu’erh tea to be specific. I have several varieties and I have had a problem with getting consistent results. The varieties can be very different in size depending on when the leaves are harvested (leaves harvested in spring are much smaller). So the easiest way to get consistent results is by weight. This scale is very easy to use with a ceramic tea scoop, set the tea scoop on the scale, zero it out and add tea leaves. This has made my results much better, without the wild swings in strength I had been getting before trying to eyeball even measures. This scale gives me accurate measurements to one tenth of a gram.
