" Rafael] Reig delights in keeping his readers on their toes. For such a brief book -- it can be read in one afternoon -- it covers a lot of ground, and all of the elements come together at the end. Reig is playing around in A Pretty Face -- and inviting his readers to play along."--NPR.org "A wonderfully absurd little existential novel."--The Independent on Sunday "Rafael Reig's manic inventiveness appears to know no bounds. . . . Enjoy the humour and intellectual breadth."--The Times (London) Children's author Lola Eguibar is dead. With the help of her teenage character Benito, she sets out to investigate her own murder. Set in a surreal Spain that is part of the United States, where everyone speaks Anglo and the world has exhausted its supply of oil, this is a remarkable blend of crime, science fiction, and satire. Rafael Reig was born in 1963. He lives in Madrid, where he combines university teaching with his writing activities.
