First Token is a hybrid novel and true to its title. The story is told in the cadence and pace of the 1950s. As comedic expression is a cardinal position on my compass, Token is infused with thoughtful wit.

Enchantment, disguised as fate, elevates the tale. The characters, including an orange tabby are embraceable and endearing.

Esta breve novela, tejida por Juan Cárdenas a partir de los relatos orales de los propios macheteros del Cauca, se convierte en un homenaje a la invencible dignidad de los oprimidos y un llamamiento a la necesidad de oponer una orgullosa resistencia.

¿Cuántas vidas y cuántas muertes son posibles en la existencia de una misma persona?

La narradora, una mujer del México contemporáneo, relata sus años de juventud como editora en Nueva York, en los que el fantasma del poeta Gilberto Owen la perseguía por el metro.
