Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Evoke[s] the exhilarating unpredictability of urban life. . . . Gwyn's plot is humming." --The Washington Post

"At once an absurdist riddle, a romantic quest, and a love letter to our anti-hero's chosen home, Gwyn's witty and assured first novel is as much about the different ways you can tell a story as it is about the story itself." --The New Yorker

"A delightful cornucopia of thriller trappings, history lessons, existential ruminations and cheeky asides. . . . Destined to be a cult classic." --Philadelphia City Paper

"Gwyn leaves many of his mysteries veiled, while providing enough detail to avert readers from a head start. . . . Beautifully precise." --Newsday

"A wild but entertaining ride through historic Barcelona. . . . The writing is delicious." --Deseret Morning News

Reseña del editor:

A cryptic invitation to a local art gallery draws Lucas, a musician and translator living in Barcelona's Gothic Quarter, into a series of strange adventures and mysterious encounters as he embarks on a passionate love affair with the alluring Nuria and is kidnapped by a religious cult that believes that he and Nuria are reincarnations of members of the extinct Cathar sect. A first novel. Reprint. 15,000 first printing.
