"An exuberantly sprawling, politicaly charged picaresque novel that follows two literary sleuths on their quixotic quest for a long-lost poet through the feverish Mexican dessert, with decade-bending, sleight-of-hand pit stops in Paris, London, Mexico City and Tel-Aviv."

I need to be on a sailboat again. I miss traveling
with only the sound of the water passing by and
destination or direction being the last of my
worries. You are never "there" until you want
to be.
My Dear Medame,
I just noticed that I forgot my cane at your
house yesterday; please be good enough to
give it to the bearer of this letter.
P.S. Kindly pardon me for disturbing you;
I just found my cane.

With some irony in her interrogation, for when one woke at all, one's relations changed, she looked at the steady light, the pitiless, the remorseless, which was so much her, yet so little her, which had her at its beck and call (she woke in the night and saw it bent across their bed, stroking the floor), but for all that she thought, watching it with fascination, hypnotized, as if it were stroking with its silver fingers some sealed vessel in her brain who's bursting would flood her with delight, she had known happiness, and it silvered the rough waves a little more brightly, as daylight faded, and the blue went out of the sea and it rolled in waves of pure lemon which curved and swelled and broke upon the beach and the ecstasy burst in her eyes and waves of pure delight raced over the floor of her mind and she felt, It is enough, It is enough!
