«El orden alfabético» is the novel by Juan José Millás, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (271 pages, in Spanish).
In a world ruled by the alphabet, alphabetical order prevails over logical order: numbers are classified as they are written, so that four precedes three, and the disappearance of letters alters words and everyday reality. With humour and a surreal touch, Millás explores the fragility of language and how an obsession with order ends up conditioning a man's life.
