«La boca del tigre» is the novel by Argentine writer Abel Posse, published by Círculo de Lectura in hardcover (400 pages, in Spanish).
A group of foreigners experience adventures, loves and disappointments in Moscow during the last years of the Soviet empire. The novel mixes everyday chronicle and autobiographical narrative, with tradition versus reality, violence, mafias and popular resistance, and reflects on the banality of power, the passage of time and the persistence of love and art.
Originally published in 1971 by Emecé, it won the Third National Prize and was reissued in 2002 in a revised version by the author.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in late Soviet Russia and autobiographical narratives.
Abel Parentini Posse was an Argentine novelist, essayist, poet, career diplomat, and politician. Posse was a diplomat for the Argentinian Foreign Service from 1966 to 2004.
