A Maxim Jakubowski selected title.
Don't let the erotic connotation put you off; this has no shades of grey or cufflinks in sight. A picaresque Italian novel and comedy in which all the famous superheroes turn out to be gay and in confused retirement in New York. An affectionate look at the perils of growing old, this is wonderfully original, witty and discreetly political and was a major success in Italy and France, although the author lives in London. Absolutely worth the detour, a delightful novel like no other around.
