Trinidad
by Jorge BaraditNovela que irrumpió el 2007 en la escena española al ganar el PREMIO UPC de ciencia ficción, principal galardón entregado a la literatura de ese género. Ambientada en un Chile futurista, la triada de personajes femeninos de TRINIDAD desenmascara la podredumbre de un sistema político corrupto. Una mercenaria drogadicta, una niña-máquina con inteligencia artificial y una detective son víctimas de un oscuro proyecto donde se despliegan consolas ouijas, conciencias administradas por el gobierno, secuestro de almas, tráfico de médula infantil, cacerías en el ciberespacio y seres que duermen en las entrañas de anacondas. Todo, hilado con la febril imaginación de Jorge Baradit. Una historia que golpea con imágenes alucinantes que mezclan el cyberpunk más clásico con una visión ocultista y chamánica, un nuevo paradigma literario definido, por académicos y entendidos, como cyberchamanismo.
