"Invité dans une résidence pour jeunes écrivains à Saint-Nazaire, un romancier argentin, jaloux et hypocondriaque, entreprend le voyage avec son épouse comme s'il s'agissait d'un séjour touristique. Il ignore à quel point ses vacances européennes vont se transformer en un véritable cauchemar."
"Invitado a pasar dos mese en una residencia de escritores en un puerto francés, un novelista argentino--treintañero haragán y narcoléptico, para colmo celoso recalcitrante--emprende el viaje junto a su mujer con la indolencia de sabe hasta qué punto eso que imagina como una inocente vacación europea se convertirá en la peor y acaso la más aleccionadora de las pesadillas. Apenas instalado en Saint-Nazaire (una ciudad que los aliados bombardearon hasta la aniquilación, dejando intacta, sin embargo, la única razón por la que la bombardeaban: sus bases submarinas), el cuerpo empieza a jugarle malas pasadas: un extraño quiste le brota en la base del cuello y se pone a crecer a inesperadas propiedades lisérgicas. Los contratiempos se suceden. Su mujer, harta de Francia y los franceses, decided seguir viaje sola y se refugia en Londres, en un equívoco falansterio pakistaní, mientras su incertidumbre comportándose como un consumado impostor a lo largo de interminables sobremesas alcohólicas. Esas zozobras, sumadas a lo inhóspito del ambiente portuario, lo empujan muy pronto a un laberinto de espejismos y trampas en cuyo centro lo esperan la intemperie, el delirio y acaso el crimen."
