Monsieur Pain

Opis
Paris, 1938. The Peruvian poet Cesar Vallejo lies in hospital, hiccupping himself to death.
When the doctors struggle to offer a diagnosis, his wife calls on an acquaintance of her friend Madame Reynaud, the mesmerist and reclusive bachelor Pierre Pain. Pain, in love and eager to impress, agrees to help. But on a night that 'smells of something strange', things soon go awry...
A wonderfully oneiric novella that blends the finest of Edgar Allan Poe with Jorge Luis Borges and Bolano's truly astonishing alchemical gifts, Monsieur Pain is a gripping noir conspiracy as rich as it is strange.
TRANSLATED BY CHRIS ANDREWS
'A surrealist nightmare, with overtones of Edgar Allan Poe and Raymond Chandler' - The Times
'This marvellous little yarn is dark, mysterious and rich in surprises... If you have yet to enter the daringly kaleidoscopic labyrinth that is Roberto Bolano's imagination, this is a lively place to begin what will be quite an experience' - Irish Times
