Sumérgete en la irónica y sensual crónica del 'caso Vasanpeine', un personaje ficticio del Poitiers de principios del siglo XX. A través de la pluma de Alberto Manguel, descubrimos la peculiar historia de Anatole Vasanpeine, un precursor del arte de la fotografía, cuya obsesión por los detalles estéticos y eróticos lo lleva por un camino de compulsión y tragedia. Esta novela corta, con su prosa elegante y evocadora, explora los límites de la percepción y el deseo en un mundo lleno de misterio y oscuridad.
