VALKIRIE narra la historia de Mxico durante los ltimos dos sexenios dominados por la cruenta guerra contra los carteles del narcotrfico y sus conecciones con importantes polticos, empresarios y corporaciones globales. Vivian camina dentro de una nube prpura luego de la destruccin de Mxico, entre muertos que no saben que lo estn. Es una novela compuesta en captulos que representan cabezas degolladas, manos mochadas, corazones arrancados. Como dice ella, "me lo dictaron las voces de los desaparecidos que por ah estn". Y es la reaccin de las mujeres que cuando se les mete algo en la cabeza, nadie las puede parar. VALKIRIE es un oscuro viaje, un trance, con una mirada profunda, seria, pero tambin magntica, en otra dimensin, en donde se planea el asesinato de un presidente...o dos. VALKIRIE tells the story of contemporary Mexicos history, specially through the last twelve years dominated by an erratic and strange drug war against the cartels and its connections with important politicians, business men and global corporations. Vivian walks inside a purple cloud after Mexico ceased to exist, walking among mexicans who doesnt know they are already dead. Its a novel composed in chapters that represent heads, hands, legs and hearts dismembered. VALKIRIE may be a fiction but its well documented in reality. As Vivian, one of its characters, says, "its written by the voices unheard, by the lost ones, the dissapeared: the testimony of the dead that still walk around us". VALKIRIE its a trip, a trance, a dark tour de force inside the mind of a girl induced by a new and powerful illegal drug in a plot that has to do with the attempt to kill the president...or two.
