About the book

Carlos Yushimito is one of the few writers in Latin American literature today creating new ways to look at the world.' - Yuri Herrera, author of Signs Preceding the End of the World. A mascot for an electronics store dreams of making it in the drug world of Rio de Janeiro. A tin man ponders the mysteries of death as a heart starts to take charge of his limbs, while in a place not so far away a boy tries to play the piano like Margarita, the teacher's cruel and beautiful niece. In stories filled with violence and tenderness, love and disconnection, Carlos Yushimito's long-anticipated debut explores the subtle space of estrangement.
