The Story of

Luiselli,
translated by 9781632456960 9788427213098 9788417708115
Christina
MacSweeney in
2015.
The protago-
nist looks back
on his life as a
traveler, legendary auctioneer, and collector
of teeth, including those of Plato, Petrarch,
G.K. Chesterton, and Virginia Woolf.
Most wonderfully, he has replaced his own
unfortunate molars, incisors, etc., with
those that once belonged to Marilyn 9788469623640 9788414010624 9786075276625
Monroe. From revelations of mundane
experience to arcane and absurd epiphanies,
Luiselli’s book contains more surprises per
page than most novelists can pack into a
shelf of fiction. Its underlying subject is
how value and meaning accrue to art and
literature—in other words about how sto-
ries shape significance—but its overriding
spirit is one of invention, exhilaration, and
delight. Christina MacSweeney’s transla-
tion not only catches that spirit, but con-
tributes to enhancements of it. ■
