Brickmakers

Two young men are dying in a deserted amusement park. The story begins almost at its end, just after the two main characters have faced off in a knife fight: the culmination of a rivalry that has pitted them against one another since childhood.

Narrated with fury and passion, reminiscent of William Faulkner, Brickmakers is a rural tragedy in the great American tradition, a story of love, honour and violence where everything is at stake. Selva Almada is considered one of the most powerful voices of contemporary Argentinian and Latin American literature.
