SUMMARY:Yuri Herrera + Aaron Bady
DESCRIPTION:Yuri Herrera\, author of staff favorite Signs Preceding the End of the World\, discusses his new novel\, The Transmigration of Bodies\, with Aaron Bady. \nPraise for Yuri Herrera: \n‘Yuri Herrera must be a thousand years old. He must have travelled to hell\, and heaven\, and back again. He must have once been a girl\, an animal\, a rock\, a boy\, and a woman. Nothing else explains the vastness of his understanding.’ — Valeria Luiselli\, author of Faces in the Crowd \n‘In its hundred-odd pages\, Signs Preceding the End of the World manages to be many things at once: an allegory\, a dark myth\, an epic\, a compelling meditation on language.’ — Adam Levy\, Music and Literature \n‘Yuri Herrera is Mexico’s greatest novelist.’ — Francisco Goldman\, author of Say Her Name \n\nAbout The Transmigration of Bodies: \nA plague has brought death to the city. Two feuding crime families with blood on their hands need our hard-boiled hero\, The Redeemer\, to broker peace. Both his instincts and the vacant streets warn him to stay indoors\, but The Redeemer ventures out into the city’s underbelly to arrange for the exchange of the bodies they hold hostage.\nYuri Herrera’s novel is a response to the violence of contemporary Mexico. With echoes of Romeo and Juliet\, Roberto Bolano and Raymond Chandler\, “The Transmigration of Bodies” is a noirish tragedy and a tribute to those bodies loved\, sanctified\, lusted after\, and defiled that violent crime has touched. \n
