La iniciación sexual y sentimental de un joven homosexual en la Lima de los años noventa pone de relieve las dramáticas tensiones de una sociedad represiva y discriminadora.

«Uno se da cuenta de que las cosas son distintas por la manera en que acaricias y te acarician.» Mejor el fuego recrea los avatares de la fantasía, la violencia y el placer en la vida de un joven homosexual en la Lima de los años noventa. Una historia donde el sexo, el miedo, la belleza, la crueldad y el amor son atributos de una memoria que los hace indistinguibles: esquirlas adheridas a un cuerpo en trance de revelaciones, asumido, según describe el protagonista, como un «instrumento al servicio de las necesidades y deseos de la imaginación». Gracias a un cuidado lenguaje poético, José Carlos Yrigoyen ha sabido plasmar en esta obra el espíritu de una época encarnado en un joven cuya piel es el campo de batalla entre sus anhelos y el mundo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The rite of sexual and emotional passage of a young homosexual man highlights dramatic tensions in the repressive and discriminatory Liman society of the nineties.

"You can tell that things have changed because of the way you touch and are touched". Fire is Better depicts the ups and downs of fantasy, violence, and pleasure in the life on a young homosexual man in Lima during the nineteen nineties. It is a story where sex, fear, beauty, cruelty, and love are all attributes of a memory that makes them indistinguishable--shrapnel in a body going through a revealing trance, considered, as the protagonist describes, an "instrument in the service of imagination's need and desire". Through a carefully crafted poetic language, José Carlos Yrigoyen knew how to portray the spirit of an era in his work, embodied in a young man, whose skin is a battlefield between his own yearnings and the world.

Good Fit Out of the Box
Size: 9, Color: Black
The shoes came with the correct size and is a good fit. They were originally pretty stiff, but are much better now after breaking them in. They look good. but as other's have said, they are made of synthetic leather and in my opinion have kind of a plastic look to them. The quality is good with ridged rubbber soles. I thought they were kind of expensive, but then again I haven't purchased these type of shoes in a while. A family member told me that if they were real leather, they would have been a lot more expensive. For what the shoes are I would recommend the purchase.

Sleek and classy loafer
Size: 10.5, Color: Black
Was skeptical on this purchase but I have to say, well worth it. Not super expensive but very comfortable. Wears well for summer dress attire for taking your lady out for a dinner or show. Casual yet classy. Not a bad buy.

I wanted to love these
Size: 9, Color: Black Leather
These are very good looking in person, especially the buckles and the pop of red on black. Alas, I have another pair of Marc Joseph shoes to compare comfort and fit, and this pair simply hurts my feet.
