Down the Rabbit Hole

Down the Rabbit Hole

<p><b>"A brief and majestic debut." ―Matías Néspolo, </b><i><b>El Mundo</b></i><br><i></i><br>Tochtli lives in a palace. He loves hats, samurai, guillotines, and dictionaries, and what he wants more than anything right now is a new pet for his private zoo: a pygmy hippopotamus from Liberia. But Tochtli is a child whose father is a drug baron on the verge of taking over a powerful cartel, and Tochtli is growing up in a luxury hideout that he shares with hit men, prostitutes, dealers, servants, and the odd corrupt politician or two. Long-listed for <i>The Guardian </i>First Book Award, <i>Down the Rabbit Hole</i>, a masterful and darkly comic first novel, is the chronicle of a delirious journey to grant a child's wish.</p>
