THE SAVAGE DETECTIVES

New Years Eve 1975, Mexico City. Two hunted men leave town in a hurry, on the desert-bound trail of a vanished poet. Spanning two d ecades and crossing continents, theirs is a remarkable quest through a darkening universe our own. It is a journey told and shared by a generation of lovers, rebels and readers, whose testimonies are woven together into one of the most dazzling Latin American no vels of the twentieth century.
