Karin Scherer says: 'The Nobel Prize Winner in Literature has served up a novel about love and desire and the blurred boundaries between reality and the destructive influence of the media. We encounter two strong protagonists coming from very differnt walks of life. Their stories are interwoven in unusual ways with nightmareish consequences. Another rivteing novel from the much admired author and a must-read for those yet to sample the matchless skills of this South American master.'
