Auge y caída del conejo Bam

This is a novel about rabbits. Or rather, about a singular rabbit and his decisive impact on the Great Burrow. This is a novel about the difference between being given a name and choosing one; about the creation of institutions and rituals; about the manipulation of fear, the incitement of hatred, the political promise of happiness, the obsession with security, the dialectical use of pleasure, and the fiction of collective identity. To some an outcast, to others a dangerous agitator, and to all a leader, *The Rise and Fall of Bam the Rabbit* recounts the events that gave rise to the legend of the Great Burrow’s most important rabbit—narrated by his loyal companion Copito, who strives to separate myth from reality in a final act of betrayal or sublimated love.
