La sombra púrpura del cielo roto emerge como una novela de gran profundidad y ambición narrativa, que abarca casi medio siglo de historia puertorriqueña, desde el icónico Festival Mar y Sol de 1972 hasta el devastador impacto del huracán María en 2017. A través de una estructura constelacional, la obra entrelaza las vidas de personajes cuyas experiencias abordan, con una subjetividad fragmentada, temas como la maternidad, la lucha económica de los artistas teatrales, el deseo, la corrupción, la enfermedad multigeneracional de Alzheimer y las identidades de género en su dimensión queer. La novela combina la filosofía barroca con lo kitsch y lo camp, desafiando las convenciones tradicionales del género al incorporar un ritmo narrativo que fluye con precisión entre flashbacks y flashforwards.
Con ecos de una picaresca renovada, esta novela no solo ilumina, sino que también provoca. Embark on an enlightening journey through history and culture at our final project showcase!
