The Doorman, his first work set in the United States, breaks new ground with the extraordinary and tragic story of Juan, a young Cuban refugee who becomes a doorman at a luxury apartment building in Manhattan. Oddly alienated from the tenants, Juan finds himself being seduced by their pets-a bear, a rattlesnake, an orangutan, goldfish, cats, dogs-who speak to him, determined to recruit him to their cause: a revolt against humans and human society, and a mass flight to liberty. Fantastic, satirical, dizzyingly inventive, The Doorman is a bittersweet parable about freedom and community, told with a profound sense of humanity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51866412679456,"sku":"NEW080213405X","price":11.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61llSTwaR4L.jpg?v=1781676812","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-doorman-a-novel-080213405x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
