A splendid ironic portrayal of literary Paris and of a young writer’s struggles by one of Spain’s most eminent authors.

Trade Review
"Mr. Vila-Matas shows that the reasons for (and the consequences of) not writing fiction can, in a funny way, be almost as rich and complicated as fiction itself." -- The Economist
"Vila-Matas’s touch is light and whimsical, while his allusions encompass a rogue’s gallery of world literature." -- Time Out New York
"I’m reading Vila-Matas’s book like a novel, a very good novel in which the narrator gives us exhaustive information about the protagonist who happens to be himself. I don’t know him personally, nor am I planning to meet him, I prefer to read him and let his literature pervade me." -- Pedro Almodóvar
