About the Book

De Xavier Velasco, autor de Puedo explicarlo todo y Diablo Guardián, VI Premio Alfaguara de Novela 2003. Esta es la historia del peor alumno del colegio. Corrección: de la historia del colegio. Con casi catorce años, unos cuantos apestados sociales por amigos y el boletín de calificaciones constelado de círculos rojos, nuestro protagonista sobrevive a un instituto sólo-para-varones soñando a toda hora en esas vecinitas a las que nunca ha osado saludar. Si otros inadaptados no saben lo que quieren, él lo tiene tan claro como su timidez: una moto y una chamarra negra.

Decidido a contradecir al retrato embustero del niño con su afgano que preside la sala de su casa, el narrador busca la mejor fórmula para fabricar pólvora, combate a sus vecinos con un rifle de diábolos y bombas incendiarias, roba huesos en sus visitas al panteón, acaba con los nervios de dos padres querúbicos y de paso se deja enardecer por toda suerte de antojos secretos.
Lo que ha dicho la crítica:
#Xavier Velasco teje con palabras una venganza dulce, llena de humor e ironía, contra todos aquellos fantasmas que marcaron su juventud#, - Noelia Molanes, La Razón de España.

#Xavier Velasco, el autor de Diablo Guardián, presenta un gran relato sobre esa etapa de la vida donde las normas se vuelven absurdas, y puedenmás las hormonas que la razón. La edad de la punzada es la historia de Xavier, pero en realidad habla por todos#. # Juan Carlos Zamudio, revista Chilango.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Almost fourteen years old, with a bunch of social pariahs for friends, and a score card filled with red blots, our hero endures his days at an all-boy school dreaming of his pretty little neighbors--whom, needless to say, he hasn't gathered the courage to say hello to. A story of adolescence not unlike many others, La edad de la punzada recalls a time where everything seems to be going downhill. A period many wish away, until one fine day they wake up neck-deep in adult hell--that particular place where laughter is nothing more than a tool for survival.
