It means no out-of-country safaris or whitewater river rafting until Magic's latest witchery fiasco is over. Who knew opening a travel portal between Earth and Glacier would get so complicated?

Del este al oeste y viceversa, por toda la frontera norte de México. Y más: por esa misma frontera, pero del otro lado, también acumuló incontables millas.

But there are other facets to consider as well, because the point here is to take a vacation, a golf vacation, where you get to luxuriate in your scenic vistas, eat your sumptuous meals, and play your 18 holes, too.

El narrador relata un suceso de la amistad que entabló con William Legrand (un hombre solitario), quien vivía en la isla con un ya liberado sirviente llamado Júpiter. En una de sus visitas a su amigo Legrand, el melancólico hombre le comentó que había encontrado un escarabajo que parecía de oro. Legrand dibujó el insecto en un pergamino y lo entregó a su amigo para que lo observara, pero su allegado solo atinó a decir que el dibujo parecía una calavera.

A questo autore dall'inconfondibile vena pessimista e cruda, dall'originale scrittura raffinata e apparentemente naturale, tratta dal linguaggio parlato, ma piena di intrusioni e slanci d'autore, appartiene una serie di romanzi dimenticati, a metà tra il romanzo criminale e il western.
