Only aware that he has been invited to take part in a mysterious mission, the Brazilian starts to churn with anxiety. Torn between returning home and continuing boldly forward, he becomes absorbed by fears: What if the Englishman who invited him here proves malign? Maybe he won't show up? Or maybe he'll leave the Brazilian lost and adrift in London, with no money or place to stay? Ever more confused and enmeshed in a reality of his own making, the Brazilian wanders more and more through London's immigrant Hackney neighborhood, losing his memory, adopting strange behaviors, experiencing surreal sexual encounters, and developing a powerful fear of ever seeing himself reflected in a mirror. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA novel about the unsettling space between identities, and a disturbing portrait of dementia from the inside out, \u003ci\u003eLord\u003c\/i\u003e constructs an altogether original story out of the ways we search for new versions of ourselves.
