Victor Mancini, a medical student, funds his mother's treatment by pretending to choke in restaurants: whoever comes to save him becomes a recurring donor. He also works at a colonial theme park and attends therapy for sex addicts. A dark comedy about manipulation, addiction, and guilt.
Translation of the original «Choke», published in 2001. The cover reproduces a photograph of hens with the number 21.
