«El laberinto de las aceitunas» is the novel by Eduardo Mendoza, published by Booket in paperback format (320 pages, in Spanish).
The anonymous detective from «El misterio de la cripta embrujada» finds himself at the centre of a crime plot again when a gang of thugs tries by all means to recover a briefcase full of money that has gone missing in a bizarre turn of events. The detective adventure becomes a delirious parody that moves from humour to the grotesque and the surreal.
Second instalment in the anonymous detective series, known as «El innombrado detective o El paciente del Doctor Sugrañes». In Booket's «Biblioteca Eduardo Mendoza» collection it is number 4.
A novel of humour and intrigue for readers who enjoy parody of the crime genre and contemporary Spanish fiction.
Eduardo Mendoza Garriga is a Spanish novelist, playwright, and essayist. His first novel, La Verdad sobre el Caso Savolta, published in 1975, reflected the social changes as Spain transitioned to democracy, and was very successful. His 1986 novel, La Ciudad de los Prodigios, is widely acclaimed, and he is also known for his "mad detective" parody novels, in particular El Laberinto de las Aceitunas.
