Adam, One Afternoon

This collection of playful, deadly febles is populated with waifs and strays, a gluttonous thief and a mischievous gardener. The grimly comic story The Argentine Ant moved Gore Vidal to declare 'if this is not a masterpiece of twentieth-century prose writing, I cannot think of anything better'.

Aceasta colectie de febles jucausi si mortale este populata de rataciti si rataciti, un hot lacom si un gradinar rautacios. Povestea sumbra comica Furnica argentiniana l-a emotionat pe Gore Vidal sa declare ,,daca aceasta nu este o capodopera a scrierii in proza din secolul al XX-lea, nu ma pot gandi la nimic mai bun".
