Eleven years after The Book Without a Name, Santa Mondega is released, a new crazy novel featuring the Bourbon Kid. Sensitive souls should abstain...
Don't look for Santa Mondega on a map of the United States : you discover it by bad luck or because you are yourself... a creature of the evil. Because, yes, this city has the highest concentration per square meter of vampires, werewolves and bastards. This is where the Bourbon Kid lives, a hooded killer driven mad by alcohol, revealed more than ten years ago in The Book with No Name, a wickedly rock'n'roll first novel - it features a hitman dressed as Elvis Presley - written by an author who prefers to remain anonymous. Since then, this benefactor of humanity has built his own mythology, not far from the Robert Rodriguez/Quentin Tarantino film A Night in Hell. His 7th book, Santa Mondega, has just been published by Sonatine, where we find the pillars of this crazy universe, the Bourbon Kid and Sanchez Garcia, the owner of the Tapioca bar, a place that often has to be cleaned from top to bottom because it is the scene of senseless shootings. We'll be back soon with an exclusive interview with the anonymous author...
