Zustand: FINE. First US printing. Latin noir by this writer, born in Spain, but who lived in Mexico since 1958. Second novel featuring his investigator-novelist Jose Daniel Ferro, who is stuck, with a deadline for a new book looming. He becomes obsessed with a young Texan basketball player, whom he sees on stateside TV in his slummy Mexico City apartment. When she disappears after a teammate is murdered, he learns she has been found in Ciudad Juarez, near death after having had one kidney removed. Also included is the saga of a CIA man who escapes from Saigon and searches for a Bulgarian with whom he left a trunkload of heroin; 1920s Barcelona, with anarchists and cops shooting it out in the street; and of course Leonardo's apparent invention of the bicycle. Violent, surrealistic, and told at a headlong pace. Winner of the Latin American Dashiell Hammett Award for the best crime novel of the year (the third time Taibo won this award.) Translated by Martin Michael Roberts. 453 pp. Fine in fine dust jacket.…

Translated from the Spanish by Martin Michael Roberts. 453 pages. paperback. Jacket design by Jackie Merri Meyer. Jacket illustration by Jose Ortega. keywords: Latin America Mexico Literature Translated Mystery. DESCRIPTION - September-95. In 1994 LEONARDO'S BICYCLE won the Latin American Dashiell Hammett Award for the best crime novel of the year - the third Hammett Award for the exceptional Paco Ignacio Taibo II. In this story, Taibo soars over the genre much as Leonardo himself floats above the violent plot - imbuing its twists and turns with the artist's obsessions with painting, sculpture, war machines, submarines, and a two-wheeled conveyance that would not be invented for another four hundred years. In smog-shrouded, pastel-hued Mexico City, the famous writer of crime fiction, Jose Daniel Fierro, falls in love with the televised image of a young woman basketball player. During the mad, violent days of revolution in 1920s Spain, a journalist, accused of crimes 'against opinion,' searches for the anarchist named Angel del Hierro, the most wanted man in Barcelona. In New York City's Chelsea Hotel, a former CIA man, the last American to flee a dying South Vietnam, makes up unreadable novels in his mind. Jose Daniel Fierro will go to Ciudad Juarez and find his basketball player lying near death - kidnapped, drugged, beaten, her kidney taken from her. Angel del Hierro will disguise himself as everything from an admiral to an organ grinder, while the journalist called the Flea will discover the lost works of Leonardo da Vinci. And the ex-CIA man will leave new York for Mexico in pursuit of a secret that stretches back to the fall of Saigon. A south-of-the-border/Iberian noir adventure story, a political psychodrama, and a meditation on the effects of a century of violence on the nature of imagination itself, LEONARDO'S BICYCLE features a cast of radicals, criminals, and dreamers, all on a wild goose chase that lead them into hails of gunfire. And around them circles the man on his bicycle. For as Taibo's characters are driven to their fates, Leonardo's genius stands as their salvation - or doom. In the words of the Spanish journalist, the Flea: 'If this man could do this, then nothing is impossible.'. PACO IGNACIO TAIBO II is one of the most popular authors at work today. Born in Asturias, Spain, he has lived in Mexico since 1958. A historian, journalist, and writer of short stories, novels, and works of history, he is one of the founders of the International Association of Crime Writers. His work has been widely translated and published throughout the world. He lives in Mexico City with his wife and daughter.
