But extremely rare are those that manage to force reality to change and adapt to what is written in them. Some twenty years ago \u003cem\u003eThe Cyclist Conspiracy\u003c\/em\u003e seemed like postmodern brick-a-brack. Today, it is a historical record that becomes more and more true with every new day.\"-David Albahari\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Cyclist Conspiracy\u003c\/em\u003e tells the tale of a secret Brotherhood who meet in dreams, gain esoteric knowledge from contemplation of the bicycle, and seek to move in and out of history, manipulating events; the Brothers are part of a conspiracy so vast and so secret that, in many cases, the conspirators themselves are unaware of their participation in it. Told through a series of \"historical documents\"-memoirs, illustrations, letters, philosophical treatises, blue prints, and maps-the novel details the story of these interventions and the historical moments where the Brotherhood has made their influence felt, from the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand to a lost story of Sherlock Holmes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMasterfully intertwining the threads of waking and dreams into the fabric of the present, the past, and the future, Svetislav Basara's Pynchon-esque \u003cem\u003eThe Cyclist Conspiracy\u003c\/em\u003e is a bold, funny, and imaginative romp.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Open Letter Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47780760354967,"sku":"9781934824580","price":1134.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781934824580.webp?v=1778048001","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-cyclist-conspiracy-9781934824580","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
