Summary:
"Se está haciendo tarde (final en laguna) se sitúa en Acapulco, a inicios de los setenta, narra el viaje interminable de un lector de cartas de tarot, un dealer acapulqueño -quienes sostienen una increíble relación sadomasoquista- y un joven gay, callado y sabio, que contrarresta el vértigo del libro. Estos personajes entran en un trepidante torbellino donde las drogas, el rock, la irreverencia y la rebeldía son los elementos detonantes de una búsqueda profunda. Escrita desde una intensidad aterradora, Se está haciendo tarde (final en laguna) explora la naturaleza humana y refleja el fin de una era al tiempo que describe la que está naciendo. En este libro, José Agustín nos vuelve hacia nosotros mismos, combinando magistralmente la profundidad con el humor, elementos que caracterizan el resto de su obra." -- Goodreads.com
