商品簡介
Hailed as one of the most important Hispanic writers of his generation, Ilan Stavans is a celebrated storyteller whose work has been translated into a dozen languages. The Disappearance: A Novella and Stories contains three masterful gems. The novella "Morirse esta en hebreo," now a major feature film directed by Alejandro Springall, is a meditation on continuity and tradition among Mexican Jews at a time when a decades-long dictatorship is crumbling. "Xerox Man," an intriguing story commissioned and broadcasted by the BBC, tells of a book thief with a bizarre theological obsession. The title story, "The Disappearance," is the resonant tale of a Belgian actor who kidnaps himself in an attempt to respond to neo-Nazi groups.
