Summary
"A terrifying doll with the appearance of a gigantic worm, made up of some fifty men covered by a cloth, causes panic in the city and forces private detective Carmody Trailler to take action. Smithe Andrews, the chief of police,… senses that this dangerous gang of criminals is of Chinese inspiration, and orders a raid that triggers a series of diplomatic vicissitudes, kidnappings, plots, persecutions, revenge and reprisals between countries. This is just the trigger for The Centipede Game, a delirious adventure novel in which the mixture of genres, humor, digressions and detours are masterfully combined to give shape to a vertiginous universe where Mario Levrero finds, once again, a radiant and unexpected way out."-- Translation provided by NLS
