«The Collector Collector» is Tibor Fischer's novel of humour and magical realism, published by Vintage in paperback (224 pages, in English).
In a modest flat in south London, Rosa, an art appraiser, receives a Sumerian bowl that is no simple object: the Collector Collector is pottery with its own memory and five millennia of unrecorded history. As Rosa tries to sort out her life, the guest Nikki unleashes chaos, and the bowl narrates it all with irony.
Recommended for readers of literary comedy and magical realism seeking an unusual narrative set in London.
