The Swimmers

eBook

Pérez Azaústre, Joaquín

Inhalt: Jonás Ager is disappearing: a recent separation has left him aimless, his once promising photography career has ground to a halt, and his assignments at the newspaper are drying up. And an ever deepening mystery is threatening to engulf him. His mother disappeared without a trace two weeks ago; his gallerist can't locate his fellow photographer Oliver; and every time he and his best friend Sergio visit the pool for their regular swim, another lane is empty. An entire city seems to be evaporating into thin air. A detective story without a detective, an investigation into a mystery that defies explanation, and a moving meditation on modern city life, "The Swimmers" is an unsettling book whose tantalizing traces will long remain with its readers.
