Harlequin Butterfly - Toh Enjoe

Descriere Harlequin Butterfly - Toh Enjoe

A surreal novella about the global pursuit of a mysterious writer who somehow writes in dozens of languages, perfect for fans of David Mitchell and the work of Hideaki Anno \nThis dizzying, witty literary caper about books and translation is a delightful work that will captivate and surprise readers, and not just because it features Vladimir Nabokov as a character. \n \nAn affluent entrepreneur named A.A. Abrams sinks seemingly infinite resources into the global pursuit of a writer about whom very little is known. Abrams' target, known as Tomoyuki Tomoyuki, moves from one place to another, producing work in the local language before moving on to another part of the world. \n \nBut how does Tomoyuki Tomoyuki move from one language to the next with such ease? Agents employed by the Abrams Institute attempt to make sense of the writer's erratic movements and baffling writing habits, but come to find that within each puzzle is yet another puzzle, waiting to be unraveled. One puzzle leads to another in this delightful literary caper. \nA witty, dizzying literary caper about books, travel, and translation -- perfect for fans of David Mitchell and the work of Hideaki Anno \n \nThis delightfully surreal novella follows the global pursuit of a mysterious writer who somehow writes in dozens of languages. \n \nAn affluent entrepreneur named A.A.
