Atlas Inutilis by Herve LeTellier translated by Cole Swensen

At dawn on January 13, 1923, Jack Bluther, condemned to death by hanging for the murder of thirteen people (including his landlady), was allowed a last request. He asked to learn Mandarin, and was hanged twenty years later, finally speaking the language fluently, though his accent could have used a little more work.
