It is to me that we owe our immortality, and this is the story that proves it beyond all doubt. With this sentence Ren Belletto begins a novel that compresses every genre he has worked inthriller, science fiction, experimental literature, horrorinto one breathless narrative in which what is at stake is nothing less than our own immortality.Playing with the expectations of the reader, Belletto constructs a logical puzzle that defies logic, much like the almostperpetual motion machine invented by the narrator of this novel and his father. What sets the story in (perpetual) motion is a package of frozen seafood. This lowly mechanism triggers a series of picaresque and otherworldly events, from the storytellers meeting with Fate disguised as a beautiful woman, to the kidnapping of his daughter, to his amorous reunion with the younger halfsister of a high school friend, to the elimination of death from the world. Its a funny business, but Bellettos playful and falsely transparent language opens the book to such serious matters as explorations of death, immortality, love, and the innocence of children.
