Overview
"Exhilarating, inventive, and consistently absorbing."—The Guardian
Buenos Aires, 1992. Hacker Felipe Félix is summoned to the twin towers of magnate Fausto Tamerlán and charged with finding witnesses to a very public crime. Refusal is not an option. After a decade immersed in virtual realities, trying to forget the Falklands War, Félix has to confront the city.
Detective novel, cyber-thriller, inner-city road trip, and war memoir, The Islands is a hilarious, devastating, and dizzyingly surreal account of a history that remains raw.
Carlos Gamerro, born in 1962, is one of the most highly regarded contemporary Argentine writers.
