At some point I stopped paying attention which means I’m not interested. I found it quite monotonous.

A nice, quick read. An interesting fictional account of the Venezuelan revolution that illustrates the horrors that happen during that kind of upheaval.

Really got drawn in at the start with the musings on grief and mother-daughter relationships, but I felt like this lacked quite a bit of drive? It was hard to feel an impetus or emotional connection with the characters and I sometimes failed to see the relevance of certain flashbacks. Definitely an extremely vivid and affecting portrayal of the violence and disruption. I don't know much about Venezuela's history so will have to go and do some further reading.

Personal, down scaled view on a society in collapse. Interesting, infuriating, insightful. It raises questions in yourself, at the same time as you get vivid portraits of female characters, drawn like human beings.
This is a time in history that needs more stories. Would read more from this author.
Español.
Está bien, muy correcto. Creo que dibuja un panorama de lo vivido de manera cruda y real, a pesar de ser una "ficción". Muy ameno y rápido de leer.
Lo que más me saltó es la manera de escribir muy "españolizada", siendo que el personaje es precisamente lo contrario. Será un tema de edición, probablemente.
