Description
Award-winning, internationally acclaimed writer Guillermo Arriaga weaves a luminous, insightful story of love and friendship, passion and betrayal, lunacy and mental illness. Set in Mexico City, The Night Buffalo revolves around the mysterious suicide of Gregorio, a charismatic but troubled young man who was betrayed by the two people he trusted most.
Atmospheric...The Night Buffalo twists around itself, revealing secrets slowly and deliberately."
-- The Miami Herald
"A haunting page-turner, masterfully written...Arriaga's poetic, edgy, cinematic qualities are on display."
-- Victor Rivas Rivers, actor, author of A Private Family Matter
"Powerful, gripping...this is the kind of book that makes your heart pound as you race through it, reaching the end with bated breath."
-- Mayra Montero, author of Captain of the Sleepers and The Last Night I Spent with You
"Unfolding like a waking nightmare, The Night Buffalo is a haunting exploration of the secret places where love and death meet after dark."
-- Tananarive Due, author of Joplin's Ghost
