Inhaltsangabe

Argenis Luna is an artist who no longer paints, a heroin addict who no longer uses, and an overgrown child trying to make sense of his inheritance in the Dominican Republic, where his once-revolutionary father and his comrades are now part of the ruling elite. Thrown out of rehab in Havana, Argenis picks his way between his own crisis and the detritus of an abandoned generation in a series of highly charged encounters with drag queens, fellow artists, and the gleaming muscles of his former dealer.

After the nightmare-ish hallucination of Tentacle, Rita Indianas new novel strikes a mellower note as it conjures up this patch of the Caribbean in all its beauty, love and corruption.
