A novel the Los Angeles Times Book Review called "a work of poetic
and erotic genius from a master navigator of the human psyche", The
Natural Order of Things is a tale of two families and the secrets
that bind them. The voices of his characters -- an army officer
being tortured in prison on charges of conspiracy; an elderly man,
once a miner in Mozambique, now reduced to dreams of "flying
underground"; a diabetic teenage girl and the middle-aged husband
she despises; the officer's illegitimate sister, locked away to
haunt the house like Bertha Rochester in Jane Eyre -- create a
portrait of a disintegrating Portugal, a personal political history
that attains the brilliance and surreality of Elias Canetti and
Nikolai Gogol.
