Description
A sloth with a special gift in a shocking, imaginative farce that queers and undermines the glories of great men and their thirst for power.
At the port of Buenos Aires in September 1933, the Peruvian Rubber Company delivers nineteen indigenous people from the Amazon to Amado Dam, a highly respected citizen and member of a committee charged with creating the first ever Ethnographic Theme Park in Argentina. And among the human cargo is an unaccounted for box, harboring a sloth with a fascinating yet terrifying secret. How will this discovery become a state secret over time and under the control of the National Telepathy Commission? Roque Larraquy, one of the most original voices in contemporary Argentinean literature, brings us a shocking, bizarre, funny, imaginative novel that lays all-too-bare the secret longings and not-so-secret machinations of a social class that will stop at nothing in order to stay in power.
