Om boken
An artist races to finish his forgery of a masterpiece while held captive in surreal, menacing splendor. José Federico Burgos is a failed painter turned forger trapped in an architectural masterpiece hidden behind high walls, alongside an impish vagabond and some very resourceful, very intimidating twins. The novel traverses late 20th Century Guadalajara with the exuberance and eccentricity of an 18th Century picaresque, paying homage to greats like Juan Rulfo and Luis Barragán.
