Reviews
"Deftly blurs the line between reality and the absurd. . . . Coincidences are plentiful and may remind American readers of Paul Auster's mode. Millás tips his cap to his Latin American literary cousins in his fantastical denouement in which he returns to a scene akin to the punishment of Prometheus." -- On the Seawall "Continuously surprising and entertaining, offhandedly funny and deconstructive of many forms of social preposterousness." -- North of Oxford "Wonderfully absurd." -- Litro Magazine "Nicely layered and twisted." -- Complete Review "Everything impresses in this darkly iridescent, utterly captivating flight." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Masterly. . . .

Synopsis
An odyssey of operatic proportions, featuring an obsession-fueled taxi driver After Lucía loses her job at an IT firm, she has a vision of her future career as a taxi driver, brought on by the intoxicating opera floating through her apartment's air vent. She obtains her taxi license and meets the neighbor responsible for the music. Calaf is the man's name, which also happens to be the name of the character in Puccini's Turandot and the bird Lucía received on her tenth birthday from her long-since-dead mother. When he moves out of her building, Lucía becomes obsessed, driving through Madrid and searching for him on every corner, meeting intriguing people along the way. What follows is a phantasmagoria of coincidence, betrayal, and revenge, featuring Millás's singular dark humor. Let No One Sleep is a delirious novel in which the mundane and extraordinary collide, art revives and devastates, and identity is unhinged by the treacherous forces of contemporary society. Juan José Millás is the recipient of Spain's most prestigious literary prizes: the Premio Nadal, Premio Planeta, and Premio Nacional de Narrativa. He is the author of several short story collections and works of nonfiction as well as over a dozen novels, including two published in North America: From the Shadows and Let No One Sleep .

Calaf, he says, is his name, also the name of the character from Puccini's Turandot and the name of the bird Luc'ia received on her 10th birthday from her long-since-dead mother. When Calaf moves out of her building, Luc'ia becomes obsessed, driving through Madrid and searching for him on every corner, meeting intriguing characters along the way. What follows is a surreal tale of superstition and coincidence, featuring Mill'as's singular dark humor. Let No One Sleep is a delirious novel in which the mundane and extraordinary collide, art revives and devastates, and identity is unhinged by the forces of globalized capitalism"--, An odyssey of operatic proportions, featuring an obsession-fueled taxi driver After Lucía loses her job at an IT firm, she has a vision of her future career as a taxi driver, brought on by the intoxicating opera floating through her apartment's air vent.

- f***t (379)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThis seller's price for the book I wanted was a little bit higher than other sellers, but the listing said it would be here in 2 to 4 days, unlike other sellers. I was leaving on a cruise in 3 days so I was really hoping to take this book with me. I am very grateful to say it arrived on Friday for my Saturday morning departure. I ordered another book right before I ordered this one and it says it will arrive on Wednesday. Very worth the small amount more to have it in time!
