Ya hay muchas historias de amor.Esta es una historia de sexo. Cole tiene 17 años, estudia en el instituto y disfruta haciendo atletismo, dibujando y bromeando con sus amigos. Pero nada de eso importa si lo compara con el sexo.«Digámoslo así: traza una gráfica donde cero signifique que nunca piensas en sexo y diez que no tienes otra cosa en la cabeza, y mientras dibujas la línea yo ya estoy pensando en sexo.» Cole fantasea despierto, ve porno continuamente y no le interesan las relaciones, solo acostarse con más y más chicas... pero entonces conoce a Grisaille. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Fascinating, profane . . . One of the most original and realistic depictions of the sex lives of young people to come around in a long time" (LA Times), from bestselling, award-winning Daniel Handler. Cole is a boy in high school. He runs cross country, he sketches, he jokes around with friends. But none of this quite matters next to the allure of sex. "Let me put it this way, " he says. "Draw a number line, with zero is, you never think about sex and ten is, it's all you think about, and while you are drawing the line, I am thinking about sex."Cole fantasizes about whomever he's looking at. He consumes and shares pornography. And he sleeps with a lot of girls, which is beginning to earn him a not-quite-savory reputation around school. This leaves him adrift with only his best friend for company, and then something startling starts to happen between them that might be what he's been after all this time--and then he meets Grisaille. All the Dirty Parts is an unblinking take on teenage desire in a culture of unrelenting explicitness and shunted communication, where sex feels like love, but no one knows what love feels like. With short chapters in the style of Jenny Offill or Mary Robison, Daniel Handler gives us a tender, brutal, funny, intoxicating portrait of an age when the lens of sex tilts the world. "There are love stories galore, " Cole tells us. "This isn't that. The story I'm typing is all the dirty parts.
