On the same day that he meets Daniel Berkowicz, his new neighbor and workmate, Mario Rota twists his ankle. These two simultaneous unforeseen events mark the beginning of the intrusion of contrariety and bewilderment in his monotonous life as a professor of phonology at a university in the American Midwest. But, above all, they unleash a nightmare bristling with threats, omens and imminence in which the reader has no choice but to accompany Rota to the surprising end of his adventure. This novel has captured the attention of readers such as Francisco Rico, who included it among the best novels of the last fifteen years, and Roberto Bolaño, who called it a "fabulous novel, by an author of extraordinary talent."
Novelista y ensayista español, autor de Soldados de Salamina, Anatomía de un instante y la trilogía de Terra Alta.
