The novel recounts the shocking story of Aniceto Mora, the Given. Son of an unscrupulous father, in a family plagued by misery and resentment, Aniceto is abandoned to his fate: his childhood elapses between being poor and disdained by adults. Each turn of the page takes us to the rapid crumbling of a character whose destiny is marked by fatality. A hurricane ravages Cozumel Island, leaving tragedy and desolation in its wake one evening, when the most unimaginable fears, the deepest resentments, and wounds that never healed emerge. Absolutely unpredictable, with a galloping pace, Hurricane takes us into the intimate world of a gallery of unique and endearing characters. Metaphor to human pain and a society convulsed by prejudices, apathy, and selfishness, Hurricane is a masterful novel to which no reader will be left indifferent, and which enshrines Sofa Segovia as one of the most original and powerful voices of her generation.
