Have you ever sat and listened to what people talk about when they sit in bars or travel on public transport? Most of it is banal, unfinished sentences talking over each other to get their point across. But every now and then, someone says something that ignites a thought, then that thought becomes an idea and before you know it a brand-new story is born. These 14 short stories were sparked from those randomly overheard conversations. Snippets snatched from the chit-chat of strangers, twisted and turned into surreal tales, sometimes dark, sometimes funny.

"Contratiempo" juega con múltiples caras de la memoria, acelera y pisa el freno al paso del reloj, y se cuelga de los husos horarios invitando al lector a experimentar los dobleces y contorsiones de la medida del tiempo, un concepto que escurre. La forma resulta tan maleable para el autor como el tiempo para sus personajes. Este volumen suma relatos, poemas, canciones y una novela corta que pulsan "play", "stop" o "rewind" a su antojo, como si se tratara de una canción eterna de Pink Floyd.

Los cuarenta relatos breves que lo componen sumergen al lector en una extrañeza acrecentada por la minuciosa descripción de los ambientes y los personajes. Porque todo ocurre en un lugar que puede ser cualquier lugar y en un tiempo que puede ser cualquier tiempo. Realidad e imaginación se confunden o quizá son una misma cosa y un mismo estremecimiento recorre cada relato: la aparición de lo incomprensible en la realidad cotidiana, la irrupción del misterio que escapa a toda interpretación.
