I'll Sell You a Dog
Autor Juan Pablo Villalobos Traducere de Rosalind Harveyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 9 aug 2016
- Will appeal to lovers of satirical and comic novels such as Paul Beatty's The Sellout and Roxane Gay's An Untamed State, as well as the absurdist southern Gothic of writers like Julia Elliott.
- A skilful yet affectionate take-down of artistic pretension that will resonate with anyone who has ever been involved with creative types, as well as for its irreverent look at old age.
- Already a cult favourite, with this novel Villalobos builds on the success at FSG of his previous novels, Down the Rabbit Hole and Quesadillas. The latter (most recent) novel got great reviews coverage including in two New York Times reviews, and multiple other rave reviews including on The Rumpus, World Literature Today, Shelf Awareness, Flavorwire, Kirkus (starred review), The Guardian, Oprah.com.
- Book of the Year mentions for Quesadillas include The Guardian and the Financial Times.
