Empty Words

• Levrero is a giant in Latin American literature, seen as a master and point of reference for the most exciting authors working in the Spanish language today, many of whom will be excited to talk and write about his work here in the U.S.
• Levrero’s writing, structured around humor and unease, mixes elements of sci-fi, detective novels, and autofiction in bizarre, imaginative, and experimental ways, making him a natural and exciting fit for our Latin American translation series.
• We’re publishing Empty Words in conjunction with And Other Stories in the UK, giving our edition, the first time Levrero’s work will be published in the U.S., a great potential publicity boost.
