Laura Restrepo in conversation with Juan Carlos Pérez

Los Divinos.

Cartagena 2019, 

Based on a true crime, Laura Restrepo builds Los Divinos, a fictional novel that reveals the brilliant and ostentatious world of the Tutti Frutti, five successful upper class professionals, bound since childhood by an unbreakable pact of friendship. Throughout their lives and their relationships with different women, the ground is laid for the brutal femicide that one of them is going to commit. Both the characters and the situations narrated here are the product of imagination, but the tragedy of the victim is brutally real. The author will talk about this work with the journalist Juan Carlos Pérez.
