«“The most recent novel by the Argentine writer Mempo Giardinelli narrates the journey of a man in search of happiness. Giardinelli’s novel is based on the fantasy of living another life, leaving everything behind and starting over. It shifts between the paradox of a man who feels guilty and one who found happiness by making a radical change in his life.” — Revista Diners Club “The book ends without betraying its driving force. Parting from a restrained liberating despair, it remains faithful to an existentialist stoicism that unites transparency with passion.” — Diario La Nación, Buenos Aires»
