Author: Subcomandante Marcos
Condition: New
Fiction. In this highly anticipated surreal noir collaboration between Mexico's greatest writer and its most feared revolutionary, the consistently excellent Paco Ignacio Taibo II and Zapatista leader Subcomandante Marcos create an uproarious murder mystery with two intersecting story lines in alternating chapters. Marcos' hero Elias Contreras - an odd but charming mountain man from Chiapas, Mexico - travels to Mexico City in search of an elusive and hideous murderer named Morales. Meanwhile, Taibo's famous series detective, the philosophical Hector Belascoaran Shayne, guzzles Coca-Cola and smokes cigarettes furiously through the search for his own "Morales." The two stories collide absurdly and dramatically in the urban sprawl of Mexico City in an unpredictable dance of death with forces at once criminal, historical, and political.
