Publisher's Synopsis
Cetarti is drowning in nothing. With no job and no purpose, he passes his days watching television and smoking joints, until a stranger informs him that his mother and his brother have been murdered, shot by rifle. This is a powerful novel, without psychological reflections or many explanations for the emotional anaesthesia of its characters, which is reminiscent of work by the Cohen brothers. It is built from the story of the actions of these almost complete outsiders, with no generational winks or ethical or political discussion on torture, crime, blame, existential emptiness or the recent history of the country.
