Terra Nostra
In a Paris of the last day of 1999 a man grows a second navel, while in the sierra a Spanish king builds a necropolis for his ancestors and refuses to come out of it, and three identical youths with six toes and cross-shaped backs wash ashore in different centuries. Cervantes, Columbus and Philip II are recombined into one account of what Spain sent across the ocean. A deliberate encyclopedia of the Hispanic world.
