I’ll Sell You a Dog

A painter-turned-taco-seller, famous in Mexico City for his ‘Gringo Dog’ recipe, hates retirement. Plagued by the literary salon bumping about his building’s lobby, haunted by the self-pitying ghost of a neglected artist, he can’t help but misbehave — and in so doing delivers a deliciously absurdist take-down of pretensions to cultural posterity.

Un pictor devenit vanzator de tacos, faimos in Mexico City pentru reteta sa de ,,Gringo Dog", uraste pensionarea. Chinuit de salonul literar care umbla prin holul cladirii sale, bantuit de fantoma autocompatimitoare a unui artist neglijat, nu se poate abtine sa nu se comporte urat - si, procedand astfel, ofera posteritatii culturale o demontare delicios de absurda a pretentiilor.
