Una novela del Premio Nobel de Literatura Mario Vargas Llosa, en la que dos hombres puestos a prueba por la vida descubren el verdadero sentido del coraje y la lealtad Uno de los mejores libros de 2013 según Babelia y El Cultural de El Mundo El héroe discreto narra la historia paralela de dos personajes: el ordenado y entrañable Felícito Yanaqué, un pequeño empresario de Piura, que es extorsionado; y de Ismael Carrera, un exitoso hombre de negocios, dueño de una aseguradora en Lima, quien urde una sorpresiva venganza contra sus dos hijos holgazanes que quisieron verlo muerto. Ambos personajes son, a su modo, discretos rebeldes que intentan hacerse cargo de sus propios destinos, pues tanto Ismael como Felícito le echan un pulso al curso de los acontecimientos. Mientras Ismael desafía todas las convenciones de su clase, Felícito se aferra a unas pocas máximas para sentar cara al chantaje. No son justicieros, pero están por encima de las mezquindades de su entorno para vivir según sus ideales y deseos. Viejos conocidos del mundo vargasllosiano aparecen en estas páginas: el sargento Lituma y los inconquistables, don Rigoberto, doña Lucrecia y Fonchito, todos moviéndose ahora en un Perú muy próspero. Un libro lleno de humor, con elementos propios del melodrama, donde Piura y Lima ya no son espacios físicos, sino reinos de la imaginación poblados por los personajes del gran escritor que es Mario Vargas Llosa. La crítica ha dicho... 'La escritura de Mario Vargas Llosa ha dado forma a nuestra imagen de Sudamérica y tiene su propio capítulo en la historia de la literatura contemporánea. En sus primeros años, fue un renovador de la novela, hoy, un poeta épico. Su gran abrazo envuelve todos los géneros literarios.' Per Wästberg, Presidente del Comité Nobel Miembro de la Academia Sueca 'Pocos laberintos tan amenos y tan razonables como esta novela de Vargas Llosa.' José-Carlos Mainer, Babelia (El País) 'Estas páginas dan cuenta de la manera extraordinaria en que Mario Vargas Llosa domina los misterios de la ficción y el arte de la novela, con un final tan sorprendente como maravilloso por inesperado.' Fernando R. Lafuente, ABC Cultural (ABC) 'Con El héroe discreto gozamos de la maestría a la que nos tiene acostumbrados el mejor Vargas Llosa.' J. A. Masoliver Ródenas, Cultura/s (La Vanguardia) 'Toda su obra (la periodística y la literaria, incluidos sus ensayos aquí) está marcada por la búsqueda, en los recovecos del alma y del poder, de aquellos elementos que hacen malvadas o excelsas a las personas.' Juan Cruz

Gentle, Easy to Use, and Great for Sensitive Areas
Color: Pink
This bikini trimmer works very well for quick and comfortable grooming without irritating sensitive skin. The dual-head design is useful because it gives flexibility for different areas like the bikini line, underarms, legs, and facial touch-ups. The ceramic blade feels much gentler compared to standard razors and helps reduce pulling, irritation, or razor bumps. One of the best features is the built-in LED light. It makes it much easier to see smaller hairs and improves precision, especially in areas that are harder to trim evenly. The digital display is also a nice modern touch since it clearly shows battery level and charging status instead of guessing when it needs to recharge. The cordless design makes the trimmer convenient to use anywhere, and the lightweight shape feels comfortable to hold and maneuver. It’s compact enough for travel while still feeling sturdy and well-made. The pink color gives it a clean and stylish appearance without looking cheap. Battery performance has been very good so far. It charges quickly and lasts through multiple grooming sessions before needing another charge. The trimmer also operates quietly compared to some louder electric razors. The ceramic blades cut smoothly without overheating or causing discomfort, even on more sensitive skin areas. Cleaning is simple, and switching between the heads is easy and straightforward. Value for money is excellent considering the dual-head functionality, LED lighting, digital display, rechargeable battery, and overall performance. It feels like a much more premium grooming tool than expected for the price. Overall, this is a gentle, versatile, and easy-to-use body trimmer with convenient features, good battery life, and comfortable performance for everyday grooming needs.

I love my pink lady 🩷
Color: Pink
I've always wanted a bikini trimmer but never but the bullet for some reason. I always use Gillette or Venus razors to shave every other day and I shave everything else once a week. Trimming is a little harder so typically I just shave but now I have the option 😉 this is such a cute double headed razor. The pink color is pastel and the rose gold accents look so feminine and pretty. It's certainly the small things that make me happy, clearly. I've used this a couple of times already and the razors are sharp and function properly without cutting my skin. They do a wonderful job at getting hair the exact length wanted and the circle razor on the other end gets a super close shave! I love the USB charging capability and that it's so much easier than plugging it in. It seems to charge quick and I can get maybe 20 minutes of shave time till it's charge starts to plummet. I've used in the shower and it is indeed waterproof. Once I'm done, I make sure to dry it off and let it air dry on a towel before I store it in its own bag. The razor itself feels nice and secure in my hands & also isn't easily dropped when I'm using it. It doesn't have a grip perse, but I do think the diameter of the handle does help assist. The price is also really reasonable for the quality that is received. Overall, this is a wonderful dual headed razor and I love all the options it has. Whether I'm wanting a close shave or just a trim, this does it all! Would highly recommend ✔️

Works better than more expensive ones
Color: Pink
This shaver surprisingly works really well. I don't really have hair long enough to use an electric shaver, but the other end, the foil type shaver works really well, even on very short hair. It left my skin actually smooth, which is better than most of these types of shavers, which leave it close to smooth but actually kind of just really short, so you can feel it even if you can't see it. This felt much smoother than other shavers I've tried. I like that there's less skin damage than a razor. It's smaller than is shown in the photos, which is actually good because it's better for travel. In the photos, it looks comically large, but it just looks like a normal pink shaver in person. It's actually a good size for every day use. It would probably be okay for travel, but it's definitely not mini. It would probably be good for keeping an undercut fresher. The price, at $30, is lower than many other brands that I've seen/tried. I've tried several with $50 price tags that are only the foil end and didn't work as well as this one, and we're half the shaver this one is. At least on first impression, this is a good quality and decent value. Hopefully, it stands the test of time. Update: I was not planning on using it for this, but my very fat and old cat gets the occasional knot in the spring when he's shedding, and OMG, this is the best shaver I've used on a cat. It glides like butter to skin short. It takes a literal second. This thing is amazing.

Buyer Beware
Color: Blue
Product comes with no instructions on how to operate it , just a small enclosure telling you how to disassemble it. Mine would not work even after I charged it.

Lightweight and Easy to Use - A Solid Option for Occasional Trimming
Color: Pink
I received this trimmer through the Amazon Vine program in exchange for an honest review. I was drawn to it partly because of the dual-head design - having both a trimmer and a shaver head in one device seemed useful. I also noticed that it was marketed for sensitive skin, which I thought was important given the sensitive area this is intended for. My first impression was that it's pretty lightweight and feels comfortable to hold. The pink plastic color looks decent enough, and while lightweight, the build quality seems solid enough for the price point. One of the first things I noticed when I turned it on was the LED light near the head - I wasn't sure how useful that would actually be going in, but it turns out it is actually helpful for visibility in hard-to-see areas. The digital display showing the battery percentage is also a nice to have, so you at least have some warning about when to charge it. The device can be used both wet and dry, which adds flexibility.The main shaver blade is gentle - no redness or irritation. It does trim efficiently and moves through hair evenly. I will say it's not completely silent, and like other trimmers it may leave a little more behind compared to a manual razor. But for general use and maintenance, it does the job well. Overall, I've been pleased with how it performs so far. It's lightweight, easy to handle, gentle on the skin, and the added features like the LED light and digital battery display feel like genuine usability improvements rather than just marketing extras. If you're looking for a straightforward, no-fuss trimmer for sensitive skin and occasional or regular use, this is a decent choice at this price. It covers a lot of different areas - bikini line, underarms, legs, face - so it's versatile enough to replace other tools you may have.
