Luis Alberto Henríquez Hernández (April 4, 1978) Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain. From very early on, he was drawn to reading and writing, which were among his favorite activities. As he was reaching his forties, and without him knowing it, one special experience would produce in him a butterfly effect that caused his writing activities to further intensify.A Doctor of Veterinary Medicine and Professor of Toxicology at the Universidad de Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, this man of science has the soul of writer and poet. He does not just distill chemical solutions in his test tubes and pipettes do not just distill chemical solutions. He also produces literature.In 2015, he published Inocencia (on Kindle), a short story for adults about children of the living dead. In 2016, two stories of his were included in an anthology titled Por un puñado de zombis más. That same year, the awards started coming in for him: he won first prize in the VII Premio de Relato Corto [VIIth Short Story Prize competition] about university life and second prize in the I Certamen de Relato Erótico de Las Palmas [First Las Palmas Erotic Stories Competition], among others. His first novel, El perturbado del verbo, came out in 2017. Three years later, in 2020, he publishes his second novel: Cibervo.In 2021, he once again dipped his pen into that dark and sinister lab flask he uses like an inkwell and surprised us with Paraguas rotos, a collection of twenty stories written with nocturnality and extreme cruelty.
