Paris, 1938. The Peruvian poet Cesar Vallejo lies in hospital, hiccupping himself to death.
When the doctors struggle to offer a diagnosis, his wife calls on an acquaintance of her friend Madame Reynaud, the mesmerist and reclusive bachelor Pierre Pain. Pain, in love and eager to impress, agrees to help. But on a night that ''smells of something strange'', things soon go awry...
A wonderfully oneiric novella that blends the finest of Edgar Allan Poe with Jorge Luis Borges and Bolano''s truly astonishing alchemical gifts, Monsieur Pain is a gripping noir conspiracy as rich as it is strange.
TRANSLATED BY CHRIS ANDREWS
