It is always a good time to reconcile with youth literature. Not that I have anything against authors like Blue jeans o John Green, other best sellers for kids. But between those and David lozano The only thing left is to acknowledge that only in the case of David can the reading of his works be undertaken with the certainty of being able to enjoy a more chicha entertainment plot.
And of course, David Lozano is also a clever man like me. Practically contemporary to be exact. With which, the imaginary and the shared references suppose that tune towards a faster connection with the good stories to which it invites us.
Novels for all tastes around mystery genre or the fantastic. Fast-paced adventures with that moral point of the children's and youth classics. 24 karat literature for every generation in this transition to middle age.
Fantastic series with inspirations between Ende y Pratchett or individual novels around mysteries that young readers they ponder and soak themselves, gaining the necessary empathy that ends up jumping from the books to life.
3 best novels by David Lozano
Desconocidos
A novel that must have been a challenge in its writing. Everything happens in a few hours from two very different prisms. It must be that of the times that run, of the speed with which everything passes.
The point is that precisely that, the unveiling of a death and the possible connection with events far from the precise location of the death, awaken that feeling of our hyper-connected world, of the risks of the networks that bring us closer to all, friends and unsuspected enemies. . The plot with its two foci takes place on either side of a city. On the one hand, a nice story about a first love affair. On the other, the gloomy symphony of the death of a young man who has fallen from a great height.
We cling to the idea that something eludes us, that the turn can come at any moment. And in that disturbing doubt about the unknown, we advance in feverish reading until the sense of events ends up linking with a sinister aspect that seems a message for navigators, for any navigator of our current world.
Where the shadows arise
Today's adult bestsellers focus on mystery genres or crime novels. And it is that the tension, the sensation of adventure with risk in the literary thing shows us intense reading temptations. And the kids are no less. Precisely to get them away from their digital world of videogames and others, they will soon empathize with Álex, delighted to live around his game console until it seems to swallow him up.
Because there is no clue as to his whereabouts. A very strange disappearance that awakens concerns in his friends about which they decide to join together to discover what has happened. We soon discover that Alex must be in danger, because his search brings friends to great trouble and crimes that border his investigation.
The tenacity of your colleagues and your drive can lead you to the solution. But beware that any of them can be separated from the rest. Because it seems as if someone is looking for auspicious victims in solitude.
Hyde
The youth novels about groups of friends is nothing new. It must be something that we all remember the glorious days of our gang, with its antics when not its great risks propitiated in an innocent way. The point is that David Lozano goes a little further with this novel about the typical gang of friends. And at times its construction is reminiscent of the great novel "The Lord of the Flies" by Golding.
Because there is also something between the fantastic and the dystopian in the experimental confinement of the Hyde project guys. It is about living together for a few days while all of them are subjected to a subliminal treatment. When the first victim appears, the relative calm explodes into a thousand hypotheses, suspicions and fears, both from the protagonists and from the reader engrossed in the great enigma.
When evil lurks, the blockage that leads to final defeat can come. But if someone is able to remain calm, analyze and deduce, there may still be a chance to get out alive.
