The characters that appear in it do not exist outside the imagined world. But the victim's tragedy is brutally real. Page after page, the dark scaffolding that could have been behind it is revealed, leading to the brilliant and ostentatious world of the Tutti Frutti, five young men from Bogotá's upper class, linked to each other since childhood by a playfully perverse and slightly criminal brotherhood. Throughout their daily lives, the path that leads to this intolerable transgression, this kind of announcement of Armageddon that will explode the resignation and conscience of an entire country, is prefigured, inexorable as fate.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp align=\"JUSTIFY\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp align=\"JUSTIFY\"\u003eLos Divinos is an extraordinary exercise in understanding and reinterpreting the facts.
