Provocador, perezoso, romántico, autodestructivo, contradictorio, infiel, vanidoso, frívolo, coqueto, seductor y un auténtico canalla. Así es Jaime Baylys, un escritor y presentador de televisión en la cuarentena que tiene su vida organizada en un tenso equilibrio.

La relación con Martín, su novio y el único hombre del que ha estado enamorado, no es fácil, pero no quiere perderlo. Debe recorrer miles de kilómetros cada semana para ver a sus hijas, Camila y Lola, a las que adora sin condiciones. Su ex, Sofía, no termina de aceptar su bisexualidad. Su familia se escandaliza ante su exhibicionismo. Su ex suegra lo quiere matar. Él los ama a todos y lo escribe todo, es su manera de quererlos.

Jaime Bayly retrata el particular mundo de Jaime Baylys con su indiscutible talento, su destreza narrativa y su brillante sentido del humor en esta descarada e inolvidable novela.

Este libro escrito por Jaime Bayly es grandioso, se lo recomiendo a todos

Pensar en "El Canalla Sentimental", puede parecerle a muchos como la historia de algun vago de buenos sentimientos o las aventuras jocosas de algun demente. La realidad es que Bayly, se expresa por primera (y esper que no unica) vez, tal y como es en persona. Me tome la libertad de ponerle titulos personales a cada mini historia porque me parece que asi se hubiera visto aun mejor. He ocupado varias frases para Twitter y a la gente le han encantado. Simplemente me he reido como pocas veces con un libro y he desubierto el lado de Bayly que me hacia falta por conocer: su amor incondicional e infinito pior sus hijas, su ex mujer, su acual pareja y todos los demas que giran a su alrededor. Me gustaria que si algn dia el mismo Bayly lee esto (lo cual creo posible dado que el mismo dice en el libro que pasa pendiente de sus obras, mas no le quitan el sueño), tiene q saber que para mi al menos, es uno de los mejores escritores de Latinoamerica, superado unicamente por Garcia Marquez. Tengo 4 libros de Bayly y seguire comprando mas. Es una obra maestra

Esperaba mas de la novela, la estoy leyendo y no es mala, pero esperaba mas. Jaime Bayly es un ser sincere, loco, inteligente, necio, pero un gran ser humano y eso hace q la tenga que leer.

Un buen libro!

Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2012

Me gusto mucho este libro porque mientras lo leia, sentia mucha sinceridad el la descripcion del personaje. Ademas tambien me gusto mucho como el autor describe al personaje principal como el MALO que no sabe amar, mostrando como humilla y lastima a la persona que segun el ama (su novio Martin). El personaje de la obra resalta muy claramente que se canso de los amores, de tener que hacer feliz a alguien y de las cursilerias del amor.
Una buen libro que realmente merece ser leido y poreso le doy 5 estrellas.

Ps. Si estas despechada/o no lo leas o vas a odiar al personaje principal jajaja

Muy buena lectura...

Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2009

After having read many novels in Jaime Bayly's collection, there's something about his writing style that keeps me looking forward to his next novel. It has been a three year wait for this new novel, and it's somewhat of an autobiography entwined in a summary of the author's life which includes situations and episodes, family members and other significant people that have been discussed in previous novels, his TV show and in articles in his weekly newspaper column.

Jaime Bayly is not your run of the mill writer. In fact, most people either like his style or not. There's seems to be no in between. He can be categorized as narcissistic and cynical, which I think best describes his personality. He also seems to be much begrudged, not fully comfortable with his sexual identity (possibly), disappointed with life and society and feels the need to critique people and situations in his daily surroundings especially the Peruvian upper class.

Some of the highlights of this novel include getting a better feel for the author's relationship with his daughters, 'asi que no es tan canalla como se piensa'. He's a typical father and idolizes his daughters. However, his relationship with his mother-in-law is tenacious and he seems to keep the peace with his ex-wife. Martin is his partner who readers of Jaime B have learned about through his articles and possible mention via other sources, certainly not a clandestine relationship but not one he can openly discuss with his conservative family members for obvious reasons.

The novel is an easy read, somewhat of an autobiography and recount of JB's past, present and who knows what waits ahead. The novel is a thorough account of episodes and situations that occurred in his life in Lima, Miami and Buenos Aires. The novel is best described as well-written, easy reading, worth it for those who like Jaime Bayly's literature. I enjoyed this one along with Fue ayer y no me acuerdo, La mujer de mi hermano, and Y de repente un angel.

Happily surprised.

Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2009

I am just doing 3 stars this time just because I felt there was no connection in between the different episodes narrated in the book. In a way there was no beginning, no end. Maybe that was his purpose. However, his writing is terrific, simple, fun, funny, engaging and cautivating. Bayly describes his life as an open book leaving little to the imagination. Well done. Write more.

El Canalla sentimental

Reviewed in the United States on June 6, 2009

El libro empieza muy bien, es muy entretenido y tiene historias que hacen reir demasiado, es una manera muy agradable de pasar el tiempo, peor al final del libro parece que el humor queda atras y se dedica mas a hablar de sus complejos y confusiones amorosas, aun asi, un libro entretenido
