Missing Persons, Animals, and Artists is the follow-up to Ransom’s highly acclaimed A Tale of Two Lions, praised by Ignacio Padilla as “the best Mexican literary work I have read in recent years. . . . [It] heralds a pen capable of that rarest of privileges in our letters: attaining the comic and profoundly human through a perfect simplicity.” This collection of short stories has been translated with great care by Daniel Shapiro.

Terms of sale
Welcome to our storefront. We are an independent, individual bookseller offering a unique selection of used and vintage books.
Condition & Inquiries:
Every book is individually inspected and honestly described. Because our inventory consists of older and pre-owned items, we highly encourage buyers to use the "Ask Bookseller a Question" button before purchasing. We are happy to provide additional details or specific photos to ensure the book matches exactly what you want.
Return Policy:
Returns are handled strictly in accordance with AbeBooks marketplace rules. If a return is requested because you changed your mind or ordered by mistake, the request may be declined. If accepted, the buyer is solely responsible for all shipping costs both ways, and the original shipping fee is non-refundable. Full return shipping is only compensated in verified cases of carrier damage or clear description errors.
Shipping terms
Packaging & Care:
We understand that books are precious. Every order is packed securely in protective packaging (bubble mailers or sturdy boxes) to prevent any bending or moisture damage during transit.
Fulfillment Timeline:
We ship quickly! Orders are typically packaged and shipped the very next business day. Orders placed over the weekend (Friday afternoon through Sunday) will be processed and dropped off at the carrier on Monday morning.
Tracking & Heavy Items:
Standard shipping includes tracking where available. Our baseline shipping rates are calculated for books weighing up to 2.2 lbs (1 kg). If your ordered book is exceptionally heavy, oversized, or multi-volume, we may contact you via AbeBooks to request additional shipping charges to cover the carrier fees.
