Bøger af Iosi Havilio

When his fireworks factory job ends explosively, Jose uncovers surprising new talents: childcare, cleaning, gardening, he excels at it all. But hanging out with his jazz-loving neighbour, Jose unearths one last talent, and life, death and domesticity converge. Told in a single, hypnotic paragraph, Petite Fleur is a discordant riff on suburban life.

When her partner disappears, a young woman drifts towards Open Door, a small town in the Argentinean Pampas named after its psychiatric hospital. She finds herself living with an ageing ranch-hand, although a local girl also proves irresistible. This evocative book makes a quiet case for the possibility of finding contentment in unexpected places.
