Product Description
The Tattoo Hunter is a powerful account of the dark side of sexuality and its effects on human consciousness. Written in an exciting poetic style, this story of curiosity and seduction takes us from the very origins of the Cretan labyrinth to the labyrinth drawn on the soft skin of its most intriguing chartacter, the Countess, in a desperate hunt for meaning. The elegant prose and provocative atmosphere immerse us in a world of velvet, Goth women, and red wine spilled on naked bodies, as we follow the steps of this unique, intellectual hunter.

Worth it. July 24, 2008
I had been wanting to read this book for a about 4 years or so. When I finally got a copy of the audiobook version in spanish I found it was worth the wait. Though it has no real plot the narrator leads us through a very seductive and descriptive ride. Thinking back, it reminds me of Herman Miller's Under the Roofs of Paris...but more sensual and less raw or graphic. Perhaps because it is written in spanish. I do appreciate the author's insights into Mexican women and the life of a Latino trans-national. I look forward to reading more from this author. I also recommend Puerto Vallarta Squeeze from the author of The Bridges of Madison County.
