«El museo de cera» is the satirical novel by Chilean writer Jorge Edwards, published by Bibliotex in hardcover (126 pages, in Spanish).
The Marquis of Villa-Rica, a Frenchified Chilean aristocrat, lives anchored in the past: he leaves his palace by carriage, wears a frock coat and uses a silver-handled cane. Like the figures in a wax museum, the novel brings anachronistic worlds together in a satire that is also a parable of reactionary thought.
It includes a prologue by César Antonio Molina, belongs to the Biblioteca El Mundo collection and was published in 2001.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in Chilean narrative and social satire.
