«Los relatos de Juan Villloro tienen ese raro poder no para asomarse al abismo sino para permanecer en el borde del abismo, durante mucho rato, balanceándose y por lo tanto haciéndonos balancear a nosotros sus lectores con movimientos que surgen de la duermevela o tal vez de una lucidez extrema». Roberto Bolaño

Diego González es un documentalista que habla dormido. Está casado con una sonidista que trata de descifrar lo que dice en sueños. Se muda a Barcelona, pero el pasado lo alcanza como una pesadilla. La visita de un viejo conocido, el periodista Adalberto Anaya, trastoca su reciente tranquilidad. Anaya -quien ha vigilado a Diego durante años con la atención casi desmedida de un admirador- lo culpa de haber hecho un documental para entregar a un narco. Diego se ve obligado a lidiar con este enemigo que es, al mismo tiempo, su único aliado.

La tierra de la gran promesa es una metáfora del México contemporáneo. Una lectura amplia sobre las entretelas de la corrupción y la vida íntima donde las verdades se pronuncian al dormir. Una reflexión sobre la forma en que el arte influye en la realidad y en que la realidad distorsiona al arte. Una novela tan política como personal que mantiene a Juan Villoro como un testigo excepcional de nuestro tiempo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

'Juan Villloro's stories have that rare power not to look out into the abyss but to remain on the edge of the abyss for a long time, swaying and therefore making us, his readers, sway with movements that arise from sleep or perhaps from extreme lucidity.' Roberto Bolaño

Diego González is a documentary filmmaker who talks in his sleep. He's married to a sound engineer who tries to decipher what he says in his dreams. He moves to Barcelona, ​​but the past catches up with him like a nightmare. The visit of an old acquaintance, the journalist Adalberto Anaya, upsets his recent tranquility. Anaya - who has watched Diego for years with the almost excessive attention of an admirer - blames him for having made a documentary to give to a narco. Diego is forced to deal with this enemy who is, at the same time, his only ally.

The Land of Great Promise is a metaphor for contemporary Mexico. A broad reading on the interweaving of corruption and intimate life where truths are spoken in sleep. A reflection on the way in which art influences reality and in which reality distorts art. A novel as political as it is personal that maintains Juan Villoro as an exceptional witness of our time.

Great for very sensitive skin!
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Set name: Tube - 3 oz.
Use this every day. It's my primer. Lol I have extremely sensitive skin to the point where one wrong move lands me in the ER. This worked for me. Slight greasiness but works well for me as I can't wear foundation. This at least hydrates and protects. Love it.

Lightweight glowing hydrating sunscreen
really love how this sunscreen feels so light and smooth on my skin without leaving any white cast at all. It blends in quickly and gives a natural, hydrated glow skin with hyaluronic acid and collagen. My skin feels moisturized all day, and it doesn’t get oily or greasy even after hours. It’s gentle enough for my sensitive skin and hasn’t caused any irritation or breakouts. it’s a great everyday sunscreen that keeps my skin protected and fresh.

Lightweight Sunscreen with Great Hydration
This sunscreen feels lightweight on the skin and blends in nicely without leaving a heavy or greasy feeling. I like that it gives SPF 50 protection while also adding hydration, so it works well as part of a daily skincare routine. It leaves the skin feeling soft and comfortable. The formula sits nicely under makeup or can be worn alone for a natural look. It absorbs well and does not feel sticky, which makes it easy to reapply when needed. A great option for everyday sun protection with added moisture.

Best sunscreen
I really like this sunscreen. It feels lightweight on the skin and blends in easily without leaving a white cast, which is a big plus. The texture is smooth and moisturizing, but it does not feel oily or heavy. It works well for daily use, especially under makeup, and feels comfortable even on sensitive skin. The SPF 50 PA++++ protection gives good peace of mind for everyday sun exposure. I also like that it has hyaluronic acid and collagen, so it feels more like skincare than just sunscreen. Overall, it is a great affordable Korean sunscreen and I would definitely recommend it.

My honest review
Lightweight Protection with No White Cast I am very satisfied with this sunscreen. The texture is lightweight, it absorbs quickly, and it truly leaves a "no-cast" finish—without that white layer that many sunblocks tend to leave behind. Plus, it feels hydrating thanks to the collagen, so it works beautifully under makeup or on its own for everyday wear. It offers excellent SPF 50+ PA++++ protection against UVA and UVB rays and leaves no greasy residue. The size is convenient for carrying in a bag or taking along on trips. After using it for several days, my skin feels protected, soft, and comfortable, even in hot weather. I would definitely buy it again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a lightweight, hydrating sunscreen with a natural finish.
