'Wonderfully inventive and hilarious' The Times 'A great read. Literary Prozac.' French Cosmopolitan 'Eduardo Mendoza is one of contemporary Spain's most important writers.' New York Times Book Review 'For sheer descriptive writing he is unrivalled.' Andre Clavel 'An accomplished literary novelist who knows how to entertain.' Kirkus Review

A shape-shifting extraterrestrial named Gurb has disappeared in Barcelona, having assumed the form of Madonna, whose image he glimpses on a street poster. His partner, desperate to get him back, goes about trying to find him in a more discreet guise, scrupulously writing his observations in a diary ...No stone is left unturned, no danger too much, in the search for his old pal Gurb in the topsy-turvy world of planet Earth. "No Word From Gurb" is a riotous satire highlighting the contradictions of Western society in a lively, intelligent and sweetly ironic way.
