Overview

In this short story collection, Alexis Nolla tells us of great travellers that really existed — or are totally invented, a bit like Bolaño’s style. We follow the legendary Antarctic explorer Robert Falcon Scott; fathers and sons on a quest to find the Devil’s Island; and monsters with PTSD syndrome. Different genres combine in Nolla’s unique portrayal of dauntless explorers, solitary hunters, melancholic monsters, frozen noses and brave travellers creating a mesmerising hymn to the beauty of discovery and the ancestral power of wilderness. 'Alexis Nolla is the best artist on the planet, and when I make this statement I feel I'm still not being categorical enough: what I like most about living in the 21st century is knowing that Alexis Nolla is in his room drawing' — Conxita Herreroy, Spanish comic artist and singer
