An eccentric novelist decides to go back to basics on his journey
of self- improvement: he will strip out the literary aspect of his
writing and simply improve his handwriting. The novelist begins to
keep a notebook of handwriting exercises, hoping that if he is able
to improve his penmanship, his personal character will also
improve. What begins as a mere physical exercise becomes
involuntarily coloured by humorous reflections and tender anecdotes
about living, writing, and the sense - and nonsense - of existence.
The first book by Mario Levrero to be translated into English,
Empty Words is the perfect introduction to a major author and a
significant point of reference in Latin American writing today.
