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.

Great for indoor use.
Size: 10-11, Color: Cable Knit Navy
I bought a pair of these for myself about a year ago and there are plusses and minuses to them. They are comfortable and warm, without getting my feet sweaty or whatever. That's exactly what I wanted. On the minus side, mine ran far too small. I am a 10.5-11 shoe size and the 10-11 is about a half inch too short... my heels are sliding off the back. I am reordering a size 12-13 to try that one. In the take note column, the soles are NOT rubberized in any way. In fact they are like foam, and will absorb water! Also they do not provide cushioning against any kind of rough surface. I think they are perfect for strictly inside the apartment use, but they are not like moccasins or something that allow outdoor use. And I am ordering a 2nd pair after a year so I do like them.

Wonderful sock slippers
Size: 12-13, Color: Cable Knit Navy
These are wonderful sock slippers, They are very warm and well made. After reading reviews, I decided to order one size larger (10 to 11) and they are really comfortable big. However, I'm glad I did because they a lot easier to put on and take off. Highly recommended.

You get what you pay for
Size: 10-11, Color: Cable Knit Black
Comfy but cheaply made. I bought these for the price and expected them to be not the best quality but they are even less than I expected. Please also note that they run small. I got a 10-11 since I wear 11 shoe and Amazon recommended this size. I think a size larger would have been better. Not worth returning though. I’ll just wear them this winter if they last that long and get a better brand next time.
