A witty social critique, woven with a lucid and brilliant language. A senior executive finds himself unemployed and decides to reinvent his life apart from his environment, relying solely on his imagination. From there, and with great sarcasm, he transforms any everyday event into a fantastic adventure. The protagonist creates his own world, sometimes being himself, other times impersonating someone else, someone who acts with the insolence and support of the most sensible madness. An exciting game of encounters and disagreements with love, loneliness, sex, friendship, life and death. More than a novel, 'Fool, dead, bastard and invisible' is a critique of our society, woven with a lucid and brilliant language.
Juan José Millás is a Spanish writer and winner of the 1990 Premio Nadal. He was born in Valencia and has spent most of his life in Madrid, where he studied philosophy and literature at the Universidad Complutense.
