Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Eight short novels in which Wallace happily plays through the rubble of reality, opening new paths, in the choice of both the theme as the most original and surprising form. Characters described in their anguish and hallucinations, dug up to unexplored areas of the psyche and flesh, without ever the slightest concession to psychologists or verism in a manner. From the successful young man aware of being an impostor, condemned to unmasking or annihilating himself, to the multiple murderer who in the face of the blindness of others will be unleashed in a college. Beyond the individual stories, this book shows that literature can reach the rotten heart of society and open the battered, yet so normal, body of our daily lives.
