FIERCE INVLAIDS FROM HOT CLIMATES
Contemporary & Classic Fiction, Translated FictionFierce Invalids Home from Hot Climates, Robbins’ seventh novel brings to the stage the most complex and fascinating character he has ever created. Switters is a contradiction for all seasons: an anarchist who works for the government, a gun-toting pacifist, a vegetarian who eats ham gravy, a cyberwhiz who hates computers, a torrid hedonist who can suddenly become squeamish, a man who, though obsessed with preserving innocence, is aching to deflower his underage step-sister (only to become equally enamored of a nun ten years his senior). Yet there is nothing remotely wishy-washy about Switters. He doesn’t just carry a pistol. He is himself a pistol. As we follow Switters travelling the four continents on his elevated heels, flirting with love and danger, Robbins explores, challenges, mocks and celebrates almost every aspect of our volatile times.
