Mario Bellatin, the leading experimental novelist in contemporary Latin America, introduces the neglected work of Shiki Nagaoka to an English-speaking audience for the first time. Bellatin's highly stylized biography recounts Nagaoka's early life, including his failed first attempt at love, his decision to enter the monastic life, and his family's disavowal of him. It contextualizes his untranslatable masterwork, his early use of narrative photography, and his influence on other important world writers, including Juan Rulfo and José María Arguedas. And of course he portrays Nagaoka's incredible nose, the deformedly large appendage that determined his life path.
