«La pitonisa y el idiota» is the satirical adventure novel by Jonas Jonasson, published by Salamandra in paperback (432 pages, in Spanish).
Petra, an astrophysicist without an academic degree, has calculated that the atmosphere will collapse in twelve days, condemning the planet. Johan, a recently fired postman, and Agnes, a 75-year-old widow who thrives on social media by posing as a young influencer, join her on a motorhome journey to Rome. The trio aims to make the world a fairer place before the apocalypse, in a delirious race that crosses borders and causes diplomatic mishaps with presidents and dictators. A choral satire combining humor and social criticism in the unmistakable style of the Swedish author.
It is Jonas Jonasson's sixth novel, published in Spanish by Salamandra within its Salamandra Narrativa collection, translated by Irene Oliva Luque. Its original Swedish title is «Profeten och idioten».
Recommended for readers seeking absurd humor and wild adventures with a satirical backdrop, especially those who already enjoyed «El abuelo que saltó por la ventana y se largó» or other novels by Jonas Jonasson.
