An immediate sensation upon its 1993 publication in Europe, already translated into more than a dozen languages, Border State is a brilliantly realized account of a man in the grip of Western excess, emotionally crippled by a world that is subsuming his own and inhabiting a West in which all countries have become imaginary deserts of ruins where crowds of nomads roam from one attraction to the other. His tale, in which disillusion and murder become inextricably linked, is a compelling exploration of scarcity, longing, and madness.
