About the Book

Un joven ingresa al mundo de la política por las razones equivocadas y debe afrontar las dramáticas consecuencias. «Alguien puede llegar a la política por muchos motivos. Unos más legítimos, otros menos. También por error, por desidia. O por no saber decir que no.» Román Sabaté entra al mundo de la política casi por casualidad, pero es allí donde se sella su destino. La permanente tensión entre la necesidad de trabajo de un joven de provincia y las ocultas intenciones del político que lo ha elegido como secretario privado es lo que mueve los hilos de esta novela: dos hombres en conflicto en una historia en la que hasta la paternidad está en juego. Magia, doble discurso o crimen, todo vale. Las maldiciones desnuda la verdad de la llamada ""nueva política"", basada en un pragmatismo absoluto que esconde la inescrupulosidad del engaño y la ambición sin límites. Claudia Piñeiro ha escrito una novela certera, conmovedora y actual, que pone el foco en las perversiones de los gobernantes, pero que también les hace lugar a las historias de lealtad y amor más verdaderas. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Claudia Piñeiro strikes again with a moving plot that ties in current affairs into one extraordinary novel A young man enters the world of politics for the wrong reasons and must face dramatic consequences. Claudia Piñeiro has written a moving novel that deals with a lot of current events, which focuses on the perversions of rulers, but also gives rise to the stories of loyalty and true love. "Las maldiciones" (The curses) bare the truth of the so-called ""new politics"", based on an absolute pragmatism that hides the unscrupulousness of deception and ambition without limits. Román Sabaté enters the world of politics almost by chance, but it is there where his destiny is sealed. The permanent tension between the need for work of a young provincial and the hidden intentions of the politician who has chosen him as private secretary is what makes this novel so intriguing and creates an undeniably exquisite plot that is a constant page-turner."
