Starring a filmmaker who is preparing a film about the Greek sculptor Praxiteles, the novel narrates the deep journey –from Caracas to the Orinoco Delta– of that character through the present, through the vertigo of the big city and the captivating reality of the pristine.
Praised by Julio Cortázar, one of his chapters was published by Octavio Paz in his legendary Plural magazine .
Here we are faced with unprecedented modulations of the plot, intensities diluted or placed at unexpected moments in history, displays of the imaginary that flee from routine surprise; characters with multiple layers of the intellectual and the sensory, unrepeatable musicality of the prose, subtle games with temporality.
