«La conspiración alejandrina» is the science fiction novel by Terry Bisson, published by La Factoría de Ideas in paperback (320 pages, in Spanish).
In a world with no room for all art, Hank Shapiro, a selection artist and government agent, locates works that have exhausted their creative life to catalogue and destroy them, making way for new art. It is a poorly paid and risky job in a society that prefers the ephemeral to a lasting legacy.
First edition, published in Spain in 2009. Number 124 of the Solaris fiction collection. Original work in English: The Pickup Artist (2001).
Will appeal to readers of satirical science fiction and dystopias who appreciate reflections on the value of art and culture.
