Shortlisted for the 2022 Queen Sofia Spanish Institute Translation
Prize Shortlisted for the Premio Valle-Inclan prize for its
translation A recently divorced man trying to enjoy himself in one
of the trendier districts of Buenos Aires finds himself at the
centre a series of strange coincidences. These blips in causality
are at first easily rationalised, but soon escalate from the merely
implausible to the impossible to the cataclysmic. More, each
accident of fate, piling one atop the other, drags a new, rambling
tale in its wake, until the very ground beneath the man's feet
seems likely to buckle beneath the weight of so many shaggy dogs.
And yet, with master storyteller Cesar Aira holding their leashes,
what better vacation from reality could any reader-or
divorce-desire?
