Memories of My Melancholy Whores

Tells of an unnamed second-rate reporter who on the eve of his ninetieth birthday decides to give himself 'a night of mad love with a virgin adolescent'. This work contemplates the misfortunes of old age and celebrates the joys of being in love. It is a fairy tale for the aged - a story that celebrates the discovery of passion in old age.
