Más información sobre el libro
An imaginative tale rich in allegory, fantasy, and philosophical inquiry unfolds in a world where everything is interconnected. Samuel Sacker, an American businessman, arrives at a seaside hotel for a meeting with his two Russian partners. Soon, the three of them transform into mosquitoes, embarking on a quest for hemoglobin and glucose. We encounter a pair of dung beetles, a father and son, who discuss the mysteries of the universe; a woman named Marina, who is also a fly laboring in a cooperative resembling a hive; and an engineer named Seryozha, who, due to his long antennae, is often mistaken for a cockroach. Their fates intertwine in the most astonishing ways. This extraordinary world and its inhabitants serve as a striking and unsettling metaphor for the economic decline and social chaos in contemporary Russia.
