In September 1933, the Peruvian Rubber Company delivers nineteen indigenous people from the Amazon to businessman Amado Dam, intended for Argentina''s first Ethnographic Theme Park. Unexpected among the human cargo is an artefact harbouring a sloth with a fascinating yet terrifying secret: the ability to create erotically explosive telepathic connections between people. What ensues is a raucous satire of menÂ’s fear of womenÂ’s bodies, of the illusion of logic in the structures of so-called civilisation, and the way class and race obscure identities when the observer is a man with power.In The National Telepathy , Roque Larraquy, one of the most original voices in contemporary Argentinian literature, brings us a literary high-wire act, an over-the-top comic grotesque about atrocity. This shocking, bizarre, funny, imaginative novel lays all-too-bare the secret longings and not-so-secret machinations of a social class that will stop at nothing in order to stay on top.

Cvičebnice je žánrově těžko zařaditelný experimentální text, hra ve stylu oulipovců, Perecových výčtů či Cortázarova čtení na přeskáčku, zároveň však nese výrazné kritické poselství o stavu chilské společnosti a školství na konci minulého tisíciletí. Titul…
