-¿Me vas a pegar, grandullón? Pues, venga, joder, pégame. Pégame.
-Tengo muchas ganas -dije-. Muchísimas.
Alby, el narrador de este libro, está a punto de pegar a su hermana. Y eso sería romper la promesa hecha a su madre. Su madre in articulo mortis.
Matt Sumell, el autor de este libro, no es Alby. Pero cómo se le parece. Y aquí, al igual que en la vida misma, el aburrimiento, la violencia, la humillación y el cariño tienden a confundirse.
Matt Sumell ha publicado unos cuantos relatos en The Paris Review, Electric Literature y otras revistas de alcurnia o más novedoso prestigio. Este es su primer libro. Un libro que trasciende la primera persona de moda para interpelar al lector con una difícil cuestión, ésa que trae de cabeza a los narradores de familia pobre: ¿y sobre esta vida de porquería, qué queréis que os diga?
Desde luego, una consideración así solo anuncia lo mucho que el narrador va a decir. «He visto a la gente quedarse calva, quedarse majareta, quedarse sin carné de conducir. Mi padre se quedó sin vesícula biliar por hacer la dieta del Nutrisystem. ¿Qué podía hacer yo?»
Claramente, escribir un relato a golpes: Hacer el bien.
