Cadencia de estornino
The book that breaks the rhythm of our days. The debut of a brilliant author.
The day before his death, absolutely nothing happened. And yet, paradoxically, on the island of Taun, nothing unfolds in an infinite variety of peculiar ways.
The events recounted here, which take place over the course of a single day, lead to a fateful encounter between the fugitive Julio Denis — and his bloody struggle against the loss of social individuality — and the identical Grothendieck twins. While Julio Denis tries to escape the remote and utopian island of Taun, facing all manner of unforeseen obstacles that will test his low tolerance for the stupidity of the masses, the Grothendieck twins go on evading the evidence of their own routine and the signs foretelling imminent disaster — between readings of Shakespeare and coffee grounds.
