Genre: fantasy
A novel of the fantastic set in an imagined country in Europe
An
American writer of travel guides in need of a new location chooses to
travel to a small and obscure Eastern European country. The
moment Grafton crosses the border he is in trouble, much more than he
could have imagined. His passport is taken by guards, and then he
is detained for not having it. He is released into the custody of a
family, but is again detained. It becomes evident that there are
supernatural agencies at work, but they are not in some ways as
threatening as the brute forces of bureaucracy and corruption in that
country. Is our hero in fact a spy for the CIA? Or is he an innocent
citizen caught in a Kafkaesque trap?
Gene Wolfe keeps us guessing until the very end, and after.
