An expatriate professor, Vega, returns from exile in Canada to El
Salvador for his mother's funeral. A sensitive idealist and an
aggrieved motor mouth, he sits at a bar with the author,
Castellanos Moya, from five to seven in the evening, telling his
tale and ranting against everything his country has to offer.
Written in a single paragraph and alive with a fury as astringent
as the wrath of Thomas Bernhard, Revulsion was first published in
1997 and earned its author death threats. Roberto Bolano called
Revulsion Castellanos Moya's darkest book and perhaps his best: "A
parody of certain works by Bernhard and the kind of book that makes
you laugh out loud."
