A modern epic on a grand scale, Avalovara is a rich and lyrical
novel centered around Abel's courtship of three women. He pursues
the sophisticated and inaccessible Roos across Europe; falls in
love with Cecilia, a carnal, compassionate hermaphrodite; and
achieves a tender, erotic alliance with a woman known only by an
ideogram. Avalovara is an extraordinary novel, both in its
depiction of modern life and in its rigorous, puzzlelike structure
visually represented by a spiral and a five-word palindrome.
