Autor Iosi Havilio Traducere de Lorna Scott-Fox
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 iul 2017

"As vertiginous, airtight and intense as a dream." --Yuri Herrera

When Jos 's fireworks factory job ends explosively, his wife Laura must return to work. Recovering from his initial apathy, he makes friends with his jazz-loving neighbor. But as Jos uncovers a gruesome talent, life, death, and resurrection converge. Written as one single, hypnotic paragraph, Petite Fleur harnesses the unpredictability of C sar Aira and the mysticism of Leo Tolstoy in a dissonant riff on suburban life.

Iosi Havilio (b. 1974, Buenos Aires) became a cult author in Argentina after his debut Open Door was praised by influential critics Rodolfo Fogwill and Beatriz Sarlo. Petite Fleur is his fifth novel.

Descriere

When his fireworks factory job ends explosively, Jose uncovers surprising new talents: childcare, cleaning, gardening, he excels at it all. But hanging out with his jazz-loving neighbour, Jose unearths one last talent, and life, death and domesticity converge. Told in a single, hypnotic paragraph, Petite Fleur is a discordant riff on suburban life.
