Seta by Alessandro Baricco

rcaohn's review against another edition

4.0

Como buen cuento que es, aún tengo huecos por rellenar y escenas por entender (si es que están ahí para ser entendidas). Me ha encantado la estructura circular de la narración, con quiebros en cada vuelta hasta llegar a un final que es igual que el principio, pero distinto por dentro.

Merece la pena leer esta obra, especialmente por el ritmo de la prosa (gran trabajo del traductor, por cierto).

4.5

I absolutely loved the beautiful and magical language which Alessandro Baricco wound together in this novel just as the silk which was created within the silk mines of Lavilledieu.
