MIAMI, Dec. 1, 2014 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ —Un buen hijo de P [‘A real S.O.B.’],  the new book by Ismael Cala, is already the number one seller on Amazon in the category of books in Spanish. Six days after its presentation at the Miami Book Fair International, it has become a best seller.

“I’m very grateful that my book has had such a spectacular takeoff on Thanksgiving Day.  I think it’s amazing that in such a short time it’s already made it to number one in sales in Spanish,” said Cala from Mexico’s Federal District, where he is on a promotional tour for the book.
