El libro que inspiró a la película mexicana Me estás matando, Susana dirigida por Roberto Sneider y protagonizada por Gael García Bernal y Verónica Echegui. Esta novela inmisericorde es un altar en el que José Agustín eleva a la mujer, le reconoce su libertad. —Elena Poniatowska Con una prosa ágil y desenfadada, José Agustín traza el destino de Eligio y Susana en un mundo gris, superficial, aunque capaz de torcer el rumbo de cualquiera. El retrato de los personajes, a todas luces entrañables, y la manera como la prosa se extiende sobre la geografía y la relación amorosa, hacen de Ciudades desiertas una gran novela. Ambientada en el fantasmal pero no menos atractivo Estados Unidos, los protagonistas se encuentran para perderse y, más allá de la visión satírica de la sociedad estadounidense -respuesta a los tantos análisis superficiales sobre México escritos por intelectuales anglosajones-, encontramos una reflexión sobre el hecho amoroso, la renuncia y la aceptación. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The book that inspired the Mexican movie Me estás matando, Susana, with Gael García Bernal and Verónica Echegui in the leading roles. José Agustín is an essential writer in Mexican literature, who started the literary movement known as La Onda (The Wave). In this novel, we find a reflection about love, resignation, and acceptance. Deserted Cities narrates the story of Susana and Eligio, a couple from Mexico City, who put their love to the test in a small, forgotten town in the United States. The story begins when Susana is offered to participate in a writers' program in the country to the north, a proposal that fits her like a glove because Susana needs her own space, her own adventure, to feel alive. Without thinking twice or consulting with Eligio, her husband and an often out-of-work actor, she takes the first flight that will help her get her life back. Two months later, Eligio finally finds Susana and decides to reunite with her. To do this, he suspends the job he is working on and flies to meet her, only to find that she is sleeping with a Polish man.

A leading figure in cultural studies worldwide, Néstor García Canclini is a Latin American thinker who has consistently sought to understand the impact of globalization on the relations between Latin America, Europe, and the United States, and among Latin American countries. In this book, newly available in English, he considers how globalization is imagined by artists, academics, migrants, and entrepreneurs, all of whom traverse boundaries and, at times, engage in conflicted or negotiated multicultural interactions. García Canclini contrasts the imaginaries of previous migrants to the Americas with those who live in transnational circuits today. He integrates metaphor and narrative, working through philosophical, anthropological, and socioeconomically grounded interpretations of art, literature, crafts, media, and other forms of expression toward his conclusion that globalization is, in important ways, a collection of heterogeneous narratives. García Canclini advocates global imaginaries that generate new strategies for dealing with contingency and produce new forms of citizenship oriented toward multiple social configurations rather than homogenization. This edition of Imagined Globalization includes a significant new introduction by George Yúdice and an interview in which the cultural theorist Toby Miller and García Canclini touch on events including the Arab Spring and Occupy Wall Street.
