Siete minutos by Ismael Camacho Arango.
The book has a humoristic look on life. We see the corruption and intrigue existing in Latin American governments then and
now.
Homer is a foreigner in Colombia. He becomes very rich by taking advantage of poor people and society in general.
Mario is rich but wants to be poor. His butler puts him in a plane to Hawaii where he marries a girl. Then he discovers it
was all part of a Holliwood film.
Our two heroes get together for the final chapter of man on this earth. The sun explodes in a nova and sends the planet out
of its orbit.
The end of the world is told in an anonymous letter. Then Mario takes over the narrative and tells us what happens in Homer’s
yacht. His story is spiced by the effects of the psychedelic drugs he has taken.
Mario, Eugene (a girl he befriends) the playboy(someone they find in a frozen tank) and Homer are the last people alive on
earth. They meet aliens who look like lobsters.

Music full of tunes echoes in your home
Chimeras flow towards the sky
Where the clouds fight with each other
To bring the rain to the land of dreams
As your memories float in the
Morning dew
And the palm trees sway in the breeze
Your footsteps resound throughout your home
Telling me what to do
Guiding me through the path of life
Every moment I breathe
In the house
Where your picture looks
After the affairs
Of someone lost in time
Left on this earth after your departure
Mi hermano, el medico
Elemental sencillo
Se compro en Coconucos un rancho de ilusion
Esta parado sobre un temblor de guaduas
En el blancor estraño que solo da la cal
Su puerta y sus ventanas por las que apenas cabe la luz de la mañana
Las vigila en silencio
Un cerro majestuoso
Que se quedo parado cuando paso corriendo
La cordillera inmensa
Huyendole al diluvio y a la mano de Dios
El rancho de mi hermano
Elemental, sencillo
Como su corazon
Se rie de los palacios porque se siente rico
De frisos y cornisas
Cuando cada mañana lo dora con sus rayos la plenitud del sol...>br>

MY BROTHER'S RANCH
My brother the doctor
Elemental and simple
He bought in Coconucos a ranch of illusions
Built on bamboos
It is white as chalk
While the morning light
Comes through its door and windows
It is looked after by a magestic hill
Left standing when the immense mountains
Ran away from the deluge and the hand of God
My brother's ranch
Elemental and simple like his heart
Is full of corners and flowers
Tanned by the sun and age
Rich and full of enchantment
