Angélica Gorodischer

Trafalgar

Buch

In the cafes and bars of Rosario, Argentina, there are sure to be many tall tales told. But none, perhaps, quite as spectacular as those recounted by Trafalgar Medrano. With a coffeepot and a pack of cigarettes to hand, he will nonchantly tell you all about his otherworldly adventures; from studying dance troglodytes on a mucky planet, to befriending a chaotic man in a perfectly arranged society, to a close shave in 15th century Spain. The things Trafalgar has seen... Cosmopolitan, wildly imaginative and, above all else, fun, Angelica Gorodischer's 'Trafalgar' is an utterly unique work of science fiction.
