Product description

Every night, a woman delays her lover's departure by telling him stories of her past lovers. As in the Decameron , Susana and Rodrigo lock themselves up in the hills, far away from the city pestilence, and tell each other stories that would save them from death. It alludes to role models, such as the storytellers Kafka or Pavese who were angst ridden for life, and tells of a writer, Bernardo Davanzati, who tosses his works directly into the garbage can.

His neighbour finds the texts and over time turns into an assiduous and diligent reader, to whom the many woes of being a writer are revealed. The act of writing and the role of the reader in literature are topics which are highlighted time and again. Palabras sueltas ; t. Oriente Empieza en El Cairo ; t. Echoes of Hyperrealism rather than Magic Realism are clearly present in this award-winning novel. In a fantastical parable of Colombian society, Abad describes a fictitious city whose population has been divided into three different castes living in separate sectors.

Against the backdrop of the violent perpetuation of this system, a kaleidoscope of eccentrics from the ruling class is depicted. Abad provides us with one of the very best novels on the second wave of violence during the twentieth century in Colombia. Among the thirty books to have received multiple votes was Abad's Angosta.
