Der Erzähler in dem zuerst 1983 publizierten Werk wohnt in Madrid und schreibt eine Arbeit über den kanadischen Pianisten Glenn Gould, "den wichtigsten Klaviervirtuosen des Jahrhunderts", der, auf dem Gipfel seiner Kunst, aufhörte zu spielen.

E tudo... "Ns em teoria compreendemos as pessoas, mas na prtica no as suportamos,... Funnier and nastier and less full of shit than anything I've ever read. More laughs per ten pages than Sedaris etc, but with WAY MORE suicide! Awesome Austrian lit. Glenn Gould, the one true piano genius. One paragraph for 155 pages! Zero pretension. Few sentences extended over the course of the book in fugue state. Sort of like lame-ass...
