«Una trilogía espléndidamente narrada que confirma a Alan Pauls como uno delos pocos escritores argentinos contemporáneos realmente imprescindibles». --Patricio Pron, ABC Cultural

Estas novelas «huérfanas» -como mascullaba en sus diarios el autor- fraguan la epopeya conocida en Argentina como Los Años Setenta con destellos de la materia más cotidiana y perenne: el goce de ser una víctima y llorar lágrimas de cocodrilo; la pasión del cash, nunca tan intensa como cuando el dinero se esfuma en los vértigos de la inflación, el juego o el despilfarro; el pelo como icono frívolo-político, lacio-burgués o afro-revolucionario, y cierta peluca célebre por participar del secuestro que inauguró la década en cuya órbita legendaria sigue moviéndose Argentina.

Reunidas por primera vez en un solo volumen, Historia del llanto, Historia del pelo e Historia del dinero narran cómo se forma una sensibilidad al calor de un puñado de pasajes decisivos: del colegio privado a la solidaridad socialista; de la novela familiar a la intemperie del mundo social; de la ilusión amorosa al desencanto; del culto de la imagen al duelo; de la ostentación y la opulencia a una bancarrota que es mucho más que financiera.

Lúcido hasta el extravío, Pauls dirige su haz de luz directo a los ojos de quien lee para que en la ceguera aprecie la materia risible de la que se nutre toda experiencia humana. La singular. Y la política.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

This volume features the trilogy of independent novels with which Alan Pauls examines the most tempestuous recent years in Argentina.

These "orphan" novels--as the author mumbled in his diaries--set the epic tale known in Argentina as The Seventies, with glints of the most ordinary and everlasting subject: the joy of being a victim and crying a river; the passion of cash, never as intense as when money disappears on the vertigo of inflation, gambling, or squandering; hair as a frivolous-political icon, bourgeois straight or revolutionary afro, and certain famous wig that participated in the kidnapping that opened the decade, in whose legendary orbit Argentina still revolves around.

Collected for the first time in one single volume, A History of Grief, A History of Hair, and A History of Money narrate how sensibility is forged in the heat of a bunch of decisive moments: from private school to socialist solidarity; from family novel to the inclemency of the social world; from romantic illusion to heartbreak; from a worship of image to mourning; from ostentation and opulence, to a bankruptcy that is far more than financial.

Lucid to a point of straying, Pauls casts his light straight into the eyes of those who read so that in their blindness, they may appreciate the laughable aspect all human experience nurtures from. The singular. And the political.

Poorly written
Format: Paperback
I had to get this for my class. I wish I had a different textbook because it is poorly written, does not explain details, hard to follow the sentences in a certain sections, A LOT of typos (totally misspelled name of the disease). I don't think this is very good textbook material.

Informational book
Format: Paperback
Received the book in a timely manner before my semester started. The nursing policy book is required in my master/ doctorate program. The book is thorough and sheds light on policy making in a nursing perspective. A good reference book to have after the semester when you start looking into policy making.
