The Topless Tower

Bag om The Topless Tower

When a mysterious stranger arrives laden with paintings, Leandro finds his quiet life instantly and mysteriously disrupted. Awakening locked in a windowless room in a topless tower, he finds himself trapped--the subject in one of the stranger's eerie paintings. Heavily influenced by nonsense literature such as Lewis Carroll's "Alice in Wonderland" and the surrealist movement in South America, "The Topless Tower" features all the typical hallmarks of Silvina Ocampo's fantastical writing. With subtle inflections of language and tremendous displays of imagination running riot, Ocampo's writing is beautifully translated here by James Womack.
