El Vértigo Horizontal / Horizontal VertigoCon mirada atenta y pulso firme, Juan Villoro se desdobla en periodista, transente, comprador de plumas, adulto nostlgico, padre responsable, brigadista de emergencia, y nos ofrece un testimonio de las mltiples experiencias que la capital mexicana depara a todos y cada uno de sus agremiados. Convencido de que quiz la Ciudad de Mxico no sea el lugar ms aconsejable para vivir, pero tambin de que es tan intrincada y apasionante que resulta imposible

Con mirada atenta y pulso firme, Juan Villoro se desdobla en periodista, transeúnte, comprador de plumas, adulto nostálgico, padre responsable, brigadista de emergencia, y nos ofrece un testimonio de las múltiples experiencias que la capital mexicana depara a todos y cada uno de sus agremiados.

Convencido de que quizá la Ciudad de México no sea el lugar más aconsejable para vivir, pero también de que es tan intrincada y apasionante que resulta imposible abandonarla, Villoro propone este libro escrito desde la devoción del urbanita recalcitrante y maravillado que se despliega como un rompecabezas infinito: los atajos viales, el cine de luchadores, los héroes nacionales, el comercio tepiteño, la tramitología gubernamental, el enigma de las vulcanizadoras, las incontables multitudes, la ingesta de chile, los templos ancestrales.

El autor también narra ciertos pasajes autobiográficos, como el último paseo con su abuela o el recuerdo de la colonia de casas abandonadas donde creció. Ya sea desde la propia experiencia o a través de la escucha y la investigación de las realidades ajenas, Juan Villoro compone un gran fresco del caos entrañable y eterno que conforma la capital mexicana. El espacio en el que ya nada cabe, pero nada nunca sobra: Chilangópolis.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

With a sharp-eyed and attentive look, and with a firm pen, Villoro unfolds into a journalist, a passerby, a street buyer, a nostalgic adult, a responsible father, an EMT, and offers a testimony of the multiple experiences that the city has in stored for each and every one of its residents

Convinced that Mexico City may not be the most logical place to live, but also that it is so intricate and exciting that it is impossible to leave, Juan Villoro offers this book written from the devotion and commitment of a stubborn and amazed urbanite and unfolds like an infinite puzzle: the shortcuts within the city, the wrestling fighters, national heroes, the Tepiteño open-air market, government red tape, the enigma of the vulcanizers, countless crowds at any given time, the over the top ingestion of chile, the ancestral temples. The author also narrates certain autobiographical events, such as the last stroll he took with his grandmother or his memories of the abandoned houses in the neighborhood where he grew up.

Either from his own experience or through listening and investigating other people's realities, Juan Villoro composes a great fresco of the endearing and eternal chaos that makes up the Mexican capital. The space in which nothing else fits, but where nothing is superfluous: Chilangopolis.

Helps With Teeth Cleaning
Size: Small, Style: Beef
Our dog loves chewing on this toy multiple times a day. I believe it helps with teeth cleaning. As we do not brush or add additives to water or food for teeth cleaning. Seems that vet is not suggesting to have teeth cleaned every visit anymore. The rubber is very durable. Last about 6 to 7 months before we start to see deterioration and have to replace.

My dog's favorite rubber toy
Size: Small, Style: Beef
One of my dog's favorite ever toys!! She is obsessed with everything playology but she never gets tired of the squeaky bones and the nubby bones. My only word of caution is to know your dog and if they're a big chewer be careful they dont eat pieces. She'll chew off chunks and spit them out.
