Aggiungi al carrelloPaperback. Condizione: New. Living Things follows four recent graduates - Munir, G, Ernesto and Álex - who travel from Madrid to the south of France to work the grape harvest. Except things don't go as planned: they end up working on an industrial chicken farm and living on a campsite, where a general sense of menace takes hold. What follows is a compelling and incisive examination of precarious employment, capitalism, immigration and the mass production of living things, all interwoven with the protagonist's thoughts on literature and the nature of storytelling. A genre-bending and dystopian eco-thriller, Living Things is a punk-like blend of Roberto Bolaño's The Savage Detectives and Samanta Schweblin's Fever Dream, heralding an exciting new voice in international fiction.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Interstellar via Invisible Cities: spec-fic translated from Spanish imagines life on another planet.An archeologist travels to a distant planet to spend time among a mysterious community: a people who live in temperature-controlled domes, worship a deity called Dog, and repeat an elliptical phrase from which they draw their name: mulai, the tree comes. The descendants of a long-forgotten space mission, the Mulai have abandoned the social norms that once bound them to Earth.Over centuries of isolation, their language has become more about change than stability, and the ways they eat, write, reproduce, bury their dead, and understand gender have all transformed into something almost unrecognizable. As the archeologist records his attempts to understand their world - a strange negative of our own - questions of translation, meaning-making, and the ultimate precarity of civilization come to the fore.Drawing on Borges, Le Guin, and Calvino, The Mulai is a mind-bending work of metafiction whose interlocking puzzles resound with Munir Hachemi's singularly playful and eclectic style. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

SHORTLISTED FOR THE 2025 QUEEN SOFIA SPANISH INSTITUTE TRANSLATION PRIZEFINALIST FOR THE 2024 BIG OTHER BOOK AWARD FOR TRANSLATION FINALIST FOR THE CERCADOR PRIZE FOR LITERATURE IN TRANSLATIONWINNER OF A 2023 PEN TRANSLATES AWARDThis punk-like blend of Roberto Bolano's The Savage Detectives and Samanta Schweblin's Fever Dream heralds an exciting new voice in international fiction.Munir, G, Ernesto, and Alex leave Madrid after graduation for a carefree summer of picking grapes in the south of France. But there's no grape harvest, and they end up in a series of increasingly nightmarish factory-farming gigs, where workers start disappearing. Soon the youngmen find themselves far away from the world of books and ideas, immersed in an existence that is lawless, inhumane and increasingly menacing."Startling, compulsive, and vibrant; Living Things reads like an ignition. The most honest thing I've read in a long time about being young and alive in a beautiful, horrible world." - Dizz Tate, author of Brutes"Living Things dips blithely in and out of genres and packs more ideas in its lean frame than seems possible. It's a novel posing as a journal posing as a meditation on the function of the journal that playfully interrogates form and content in art, what it means to write, and what it means to care or not care about anything, or about everything. Munir Hachemi is a magician, and his marvellous book, deftly translated by Julia Sanches, defies adequate description." - James Greer, author of Bad Eminence"Gorgeously labyrinthine." - Molly McGhee, author of Jonathan Abernathy You Are Kind Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Aggiungi al carrellopaperback. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Aggiungi al carrelloCondizione: New. Idioma/Language: Español. ¿Qué querías ser de mayor? ¿Te acuerdas? Sea cual sea la respuesta, lo que seguramente recuerdes de aquella época es que la vida se parecía bastante a un camino bien delimitado. A una sucesión de certezas que alguien había colocado enfrente de ti: sólo tenías que moverte de casilla en casilla y esperar a crecer. Esa sensación se desvaneció hace tiempo, ¿verdad? Pues bien, de eso habla este libro. Los nueve integrantes de esta antología de cuentos convierten en relatos muy distintos un mismo momento de sus vidas. Esa primera adultez que disuelve referentes, pone en tela de juicio todo lo aprendido y llena el cuerpo de indecisiones y dudas. Un estado que nos acompaña durante del resto de nuestros días. Y, ante todo, una excusa importante para presentar al futuro de la narrativa española. ¿A quién seguiremos leyendo dentro de diez años? Nosotros apostamos por ellos. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente. No aceptamos pedidos con destino a Ceuta y Melilla.
