The National Telepathy by Roque Larraquy, Frank Wynne
In 1933 Buenos Aires, a shipment of nineteen Amazonian people — and an unexpected sloth — arrive to populate a proposed Ethnographic Theme Park. The sloth’s eerie telepathic ability draws the attention of officials, sparking secrecy, bureaucratic maneuvering, and the creation of a National Telepathy Commission. The novel follows the clash between spectacle and power as the city’s elite manipulate people and truth, told with dark humor and surreal inventiveness.
