Requirements: ePUB or MOBI Reader, 1.2MB
Overview: In modern day Paris, Pichón Garay receives a computer disk containing a manuscript which might be fictional, or could be a memoir by Doctor Real, a nineteenth-century physician tasked with leading a group of five mental patients on a trip to a recently constructed asylum. Their trip, which ends in disaster and fire, is a brilliant tragicomedy thanks to the various insanities of the patients, among whom is a delusional man who greatly over estimates his own importance and a nymphomaniac nun who tricks everyone even the other patients into sleeping with her.
Fascinating as a faux historical novel and written in Saer’s typically gorgeous, Proustian style, The Clouds can be read as a metaphor for exile a huge theme for Saer and a lot of Argentine writers as well as an examination of madness.
