The Savage Detectives

New Year’s Eve, 1975. Two hunted men leave Mexico City in a borrowed white Impala.

Their quest: to track down the mythical, vanished poet Cesárea Tinajero. But, twenty years later, they are still on the run. The Savage Detectives is their remarkable journey through our darkening universe. Told, shared and mythologized by a generation of lovers, rebels and readers, their testimonies are woven together into one of the most dazzling Latin American novels of all time.
