The Heap

In The Heap, a debut novel that blends humor and dark satire, the collapsed high-rise Los Verticalés serves as both a setting and a symbol of life under late capitalism, exploring the loneliness of the early 21st century. The story follows Orville Anders as he navigates the debris of the Heap in search of his brother Bernard, a radio DJ broadcasting from the wreckage. Their nightly conversations captivate listeners, and tension escalates when corporate interests threaten to sever their connection. This imaginative tale is a poignant commentary on community, conspiracy, and the peculiar ties that bind us.
