«Nada es lo que parece» is a collection of fourteen short stories by Carmen Posadas, published by Alfaguara in paperback (217 pages, in Spanish).
In these fourteen stories, Carmen Posadas attends to human psychology, especially the male psyche. With irony and humour, each story moves towards an unexpected denouement, so that reality ends up revealing itself as different from what it seemed. The prose and narrative rhythm sustain interest until the final twist.
The book was published in 1997 within the Extra Alfaguara line.
Recommended for readers of contemporary short fiction and for a university audience interested in current Spanish literature.
