Reviews
Praise for Patricio Pron and Don't Shed Your Tears for Anyone Who Lives on These Streets "This ambitious, challenging work breaks with form and reflects on the psychology of fascism." -- Washington Independent Review of Books "Part suspense novel. . . . Part historical investigation . . . A skillfully constructed exploration of past events that many Italians would just as soon forget." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Without a doubt, one of the greatest novels of the last several years. . . . Dazzling." -- Babelia / El País (Spain) "[Patricio Pron] probes the thorniest of ontological and epistemological questions, [and] compellingly displays--as well as explores--fiction's power to unearth the most deeply buried emotional truths." -- The Independent (London) " Don't Shed Your Tears for Anyone Who Lives on These Streets is a feast." -- El Cultural (Spain) "Pron is an immense talent, a daring writer with an absolutely unique voice." --Daniel Alarcón, author of Lost City Radio "A book of beauty and substance . . . A huge gift." -- Vozpópuli (Spain) "A decisive achievement . . . Reading this, one feels grateful that books of this quality are still being written." -- ABC Cultural (Spain) "An extraordinarily gifted writer." --KUER radio (Salt Lake City) "In the wake of authors such as Enrique Vila-Matas or César Aira, Argentine writer Patricio Pron manages to double down on all the literary bets that came before him . . . With his previous work, Pron has more than demonstrated the greatness of his literary project and his talents as a writer; with Don't Shed Your Tears for Anyone Who Lives on These Streets, he is at the pinnacle of Spanish literature." -- El Asombrario & Co. (Spain) "One of the finest novelists writing in Spanish today." --Alberto Manguel, author of All Men Are Liars "Pron opens his eyes where the rest of us would rather close them and keep them closed." --Juan Gabriel Vásquez, author of The Informers, "Pron's story is part suspense novel, one that explores several puzzles. It is also part historical investigation . . . He reveals each detail deliberately, letting the mystery build . . . A skillfully constructed exploration of past events that many Italians would just as soon forget." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred) Reviews from the original Spanish publication: "Without a doubt, one of the greatest novels of the last several years . . . Dazzling." --José-Carlos Mainer, Babelia / El País " Don't Shed Your Tears for Anyone Who Lives on These Streets is a feast." --J.M. Nadal Suau, El Cultural "A book of beauty and substance . . . A huge gift." --Karina Sainz Borgo, Vozpópuli "A decisive achievement . . . Reading this, one feels grateful that books of this quality are still being written." --José María Pozuelo Yvancos, ABC Cultural "In the wake of authors such as Enrique Vila-Matas or César Aira, Argentine writer Patricio Pron manages to double down on all the literary bets that came before him . . . With his previous work, Pron has more than demonstrated the greatness of his literary project and his talents as a writer; with Don't Shed Your Tears for Anyone Who Lives on These Streets, he is at the pinnacle of Spanish literature." --Anna María Iglesia, El Asombrario & Co.

Synopsis
Pinerolo, Italy. April 1945. At a fascist conference, a writer disappears and is found dead at the bottom of a cliff. Thirty years later, a young man--a political activist or maybe a terrorist--interviews the survivors to try to uncover the truth about what happened and its consequences. Who was this writer? What did he believe in? Why, shortly before his death, did he save a man who could have killed him? Where is his lost work? And what does any of this have to do with a teenager in contemporary Milan involved in a violent confrontation with the police? Bold and incisive, Don't Shed Your Tears for Anyone Who Lives on These Streets is a gripping examination of art-as-politics and politics-as-crime.

- a***h (25)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book was competitively priced, ordering was easy, the book was well packaged and arrived safely, and its condition was exactly as specified.The delivery time from ordering to mailbox was a little long (14 days), but overall it was a good experience and I would use this seller again.
- n***a (190)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseMy kid really wanted this, and she likes it. I don’t think the value is great, just more HP commercialism. (She paid me and I ordered, btw.) The price from this seller on eBay is less than anywhere else we found. Reviews citing LONG wait between order and receiving the items are correct: give this seller a full 2 weeks to get items to you. The set arrived carefully packaged and pristine. Overall, my daughter is very pleased with the item. If you can be patient, seller offers good value.
- 5***s (623)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem as described, but slow shipping. 18 days for the item to arrive. No padding in packaging, the item arrived a little beat up.
