Reviews
In Palma's solid collection, following his The Map of Time trilogy, the surreal collides with the deeply mundane in transformative ways. . . . The scope of Palma's imagination is undeniable . . . Palma proves he is an assured, creative writer with a knack for the unsettling., Lyrical storytelling and a rich attention to detail make this prize-winning novel an enthralling read., The Map of Time is a singularly inventive, luscious story with a core of pure, unsettling weirdness. With unnerving grace and disturbing fantasy, it effortlessly straddles that impossible line between being decidedly familiar, and yet absolutely new., An amalgam of perfect style, astonishing imagery, and unsettling narrative to chart a disturbing world., Strange and wonderful. Magical and smart. Félix J. Palma has done more than written a wonderful novel, he's concocted a supernatural tour de force. Time travel, tragic love, murder, and mystery all combine in what is nothing short of a surprising, satisfying, and mesmerizing read., In Félix J. Palma's captivating new collection of short stories, The Heart and Other Viscera , the celebrated Spanish author bores into the interior life of the mind, extracting spellbinding tales from the worlds we create inside our heads. The collection, recently released in a fluid English-language translation by Nick Caistor and Lorenza García, at times reads like an assemblage of Twilight Zone episodes made even more vivid on the printed page. . . . What elevates Palma's storytelling is that he plumbs the most mundane aspects of everyday life and the most invisible of human beings, the sort of people we pass on the street without noticing, and uses them as launching pads for phantasmagoric flights of the imagination., Palma makes his U.S. debut with the brilliant first in a trilogy, an intriguing thriller that explores the ramifications of time travel in three intersecting narratives., [Palma's] works are infused with gifted ideas, unforgettable imagery and reflections that haunt you long after you've finished the last page. An author of deliciously disquieting short stories., Praise from press in Spain for Félix J. Palma's short stories "Palma's love of fantasy is no mere exercise in escapism nor a clever game of mirrors, but a way of intuiting the world by freeing oneself from rationalism. His stories demonstrate a perfect tension between poetry, tenderness, and humor.", Praise for The Map of Time " The Map of Time recalls the science fiction of Wells and Verne, and then turns the early masters on their heads. A brilliant and breathtaking trip through metafictional time.", Meticulous, disconcerting and inspired, Palma exemplifies the very best of short fiction being written in Spanish today.

    Excellent prices on used books in great condition. Shipped out quickly. Product condition is accurate to rating in listing. Thanks! NOTE: For this particular book (I ordered several), it came in a soft cover rather than hard cover as the listing stated. I contacted the seller and they responded promptly. They agreed that it was a listing error and provided me with a full refund for this book (without return required) proving they are both a responsible and trustworthy seller.

    This book is fantastic! The quality is exactly as described, it’s in great condition, the appearance is clean and basically brand-new, and it came at an excellent price. This is a first-rate, five-star seller that deserves everyone's business. They packaged the book with extreme care, shipped it quickly, and communicated effectively throughout the process. This was an excellent buying experience and I wouldn't hesitate to buy from this seller again.
