«En un pa?s opresivo y disfuncional, Gabriel Medina quiere vivir sin realidad. Desea estar al margen, pero una trama incontenible lo sit?a en el centro de los sucesos. [...] Alberto Barrera Tyszka ha escrito un inquietante thriller de la conciencia. -Juan Villoro

Cuanto m?s lejos est?s de las noticias, m?s cerca estar?s de la felicidad. As? piensa y as? vive Gabriel Medina. Hasta el d?a en que, sorpresivamente, la polic?a detiene a su psiquiatra. A partir de ese momento, un orden diferente parece tomar su vida y empujarla hacia un destino inesperado.

Al tratar de ayudar a su terapeuta, Gabriel se involucra en una trama policial y termina en el centro de un esc?ndalo medi?tico. Desesperado, cree que s?lo una historia de amor, nacida de una casualidad, puede ayudarlo a enfrentar la cotidianidad alucinante, donde lo real y lo imaginado se confunden, donde todo parece ser un permanente simulacro y la ?nica certeza es la incertidumbre.

Alberto Barrera Tyszka nos sumerge nuevamente en una narraci?n galopante, con una escritura veloz y enigm?tica, cargada de un lirismo particular. El fin de la tristeza es una novela desafiante, que explora la fragilidad de la verdad, la complejidad de las relaciones humanas y los l?mites de la percepci?n de lo real.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The further away your are from the news, the closer you will be to happiness. This is how Gabriel Medina thinks and lives. Up to the day when, all of a sudden, the police arrest his psychiatrist. From that moment on, a different order seems to take hold of his life and push it toward an unexpected fate.

In an attempt to help his therapist, Gabriel gets caught up in a police plot and ends at the core of a media scandal. Desperate, he believes only a love story, born from chance, could help him face this hallucinating daily life, where the real and the imaginary mingle, where everything seems to be a continuous exercise in itself and the only certainty is uncertainty.

Alberto Barrera Tyszka takes us yet again into a rampant story, with a fast and enigmatic narrative, charged with a peculiar lyricism. The End of Sadness is a challenging novel that explores the fragility of truth, the complexity of human relations, and the limits of our perception of what is real.
