After being passed from Félix Gallardo's son into the hands of investigative journalist Diego Osorno, chunks of the text were published this month in the magazine Gatopardo under the headline, "Diaries of the Boss of Bosses...
...Theroux's hero worked from a cramped Chinese shophouse and muttered darkly about his tight-fisted boss while sweating in a crowded bus to meet his customers.
