Crocodile Tears

The setting: Montevideo's Old Town, with its dark alleys, crumbling facades and watchful residents. The gig: an armoured truck robbery. The cast: Diego, a failed kidnapper with weak nerves, Ursula Lopez, an amateur criminal with an insatiable appetite, the Hobo, a notorious hoodlum with excessive self-confidence. Dr. Antinucci, a shady lawyer with big plans. And finally, Leonilda Lima, a washed out police inspector with a glimmer of faith in justice.

Rosende was born in 1958 in Montevideo, Uruguay. She is a lawyer and a journalist when not writing fiction. She has won many prizes for her novels and short stories. In 2005 she won the Premio Municipal de Narrativa für 'Demasiados Blues', in 2008 the National Literature Prize for 'La Muerte Tendrá tus Ojos' and in 2019 the LiBeraturpreis in Germany for 'Crocodile Tears'. She lives in Montevideo.
