Racked with guilt over a car accident that has left his wife Gloria
horribly disfigured, Daniel is confronted at all moments by the
call of the flesh and his duty as a husband. Enter Ezekiel, his
insane brother, who has designed a machine that solves the
mind-body dilemma with gruesome simplicity. A science fiction tale
of rare intensity and biblical undertones, and a erotic novel all
rolled into one. At times funny, sexy, disturbing and eye-opening.
This is Cabiya at his very best. Published in English for the first
time in a wonderful translation by Daniela Paiewonsky. "Cabiya
weaves, via a formidable fusion of the erotic novel and the science
fiction tale, a plot (as sordid as it is irresistible) around
sexual desire and its alibis in this ciber-melancholic era of the
virtual body. Casual, unfazed, armed with the exquisite cruelty
that characterizes his supple and meticulous prose, this short
novel proves once more that we are dealing with one of the most
original and capable storytellers of the Caribbean." Ruben Rios
