"When you're alone in a big city, how far would you go to make a new friend? Two men live in the same apartment block. One likes long walks, Greek myths and foreign langauages. The other likes making lists, fixing bikes and blackmail. One day they bump into each other in a local cafe. Only this is no coincidence: one of them has been planning this moment for a very, very, very long time. A brilliant new satire about obsession, insomnia and ships that pass in the night, this new translation of Nocturnal premiered at Gate Theatre in April 2009."

A brilliant new translation of Nocturnal (originally written in Spanish).
