The Brothel of Life Saul Figueroa

In the "Brothel of Life" Saul Figueroa immerses us in the sometimes little-known world of prostitution. That brothel where his stories become in painful realities. Where men leave parts of their secrets, their intimacies, sufferings and frustrations. Where the prostitutes get pretty to please them, secretly keeping all these stories that in this novel are revealed to us. Love, sex, pain, anguish, reflection and desire are mixed in this story - that in the excitement of a few drinks - Eloisa tells one of her regular customers, in the autumn of her job. This series of experiences are narrated by Figueroa in a simple and diaphanous prose in a novel that traps us from the beginning to the shocking end. Saul Figueroa has published 15 books of tales, chronicles and novels. In his literary work he has received awards and distinctions in Spain, Mexico and Venezuela and he has been declared cultural heritage of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela since 2004.
