'The author's real subject is the heave and crush of modern, polyglot Rome, and he renders the jabs of everyday speech with such precision that the novel feels exclaimed rather than written.' - The New Yorker
An award-winning urban thriller full of rage and raw emotion "Poignant, disturbing, sensitive, chilling", a novel Edvard Munch could have written had he not been a painter." -Le Rayon Polar
