«Lo que sé de los hombrecillos» is the novel by Juan José Millás, published by Seix Barral in paperback (192 pages, in Spanish).
The novel starts from a singular premise: imagining a microscopic double that materializes the most unconfessable desires. A university professor, methodical and bored, receives a visit from tiny, suited little men; one of them, created in his own image, reveals a world of unknown emotions and pleasures that drags him down an increasingly risky path. Millás plays with delirium, desire and perception to question everyday life.
The work belongs to the Biblioteca Breve collection, where it occupies number 1. It was originally published in 2010.
For readers of contemporary Spanish-language fiction looking for an ironic fable about hidden desires and routine.
Juan José Millás is a Spanish writer and winner of the 1990 Premio Nadal. He was born in Valencia and has spent most of his life in Madrid, where he studied philosophy and literature at the Universidad Complutense.
