La telepatía nacional

£11.99

In September 1933, the Peruvian Rubber Company delivers nineteen indigenous people from the Amazon to a Buenos Aires businessman. Unexpected among the human cargo is a box, harboring a sloth with a fascinating yet terrifying secret: the ability to create erotically explosive telepathic connections between people. What ensues is a raucous satire of men’s fear of women’s bodies, of the illusion of logic in the structures of so-called civilization, and the way class and race obscure identities when the observer is a man with power.
