The indescribable Pentacker is the main character of this novel and a true representative of a socially distinctive archetype: a graduated who tries to make a living abroad out of his university degree in humanities. The academy, the publishing world, and journalism become the scenarios through which the character goes around as well as the objects that are portrayed from a rather cynical and―consciously―postmodern distance. The contemporary world is depicted from a skeptical and disenchanted view, two outlooks that may result useful for the reflection upon reality and fiction, emotional bonds in the digital era, the fashion of reports, and the rituals of the academic realm. Despite this, a subtle and always necessary use of the language is achieved by the narrator.
