Paris-Dakar (pocket)
Paris-Dakar (pocket)
Paris-Dakar utspelar sig i ett surrealistiskt drömlandskap: en bröllopsfest där toastmastern kämpar mot tiden medan marängtårtan och karriären smälter; en volontär på en mansjour som dras in i ett mystiskt experiment; ett gym där de svaga och misslyckade har tagit över. Makt, status och faderskap - allt står på spel. De sju berättelserna i Paris-Dakar skildrar mansrollen som ett spektakel och ett kraftprov, ett livsrally utan karta och kompass. Med ömhet, skärpa och nattsvart humor speglar Jens Liljestrand den manliga katastrofen. Format Pocket Omfång 278 sidor Språk Svenska Förlag Ordfront Förlag Utgivningsdatum 2009-01-09 ISBN 9789170374562
