Role Play - Paperback
by Clara Drummond (Author), Daniel Hahn (Translator)
Role Play is a fresh satire narrated by a wealthy young woman in Rio on the verge of a class-consciousness awakening.
Vivian is a curator, not just at her gallery gig in Rio de Janeiro, but in every aspect of her life. Her apartment has designer armchairs. Her wallet is Comme des Gar?ons. Everything is selected and arranged, even her lovers and friends. In Vivian's world, everything comes in excess, including her own caustic selfawareness. As she informs us, "I'm a misandrist and a misogynist," but she is fond of gay men, "the one type of human you can properly get along with as equals."
