Viszonylag sok ideig olvastam a könyvet – noha egészen rövidke –, és viszonylag hosszú ideig tologattam, hogy leírjam róla a véleményemet is. Kicsi a bors, de erős, ha egy mondással kellene jellemeznem a Megy le a nap Caracasbant. És abszolút úgy gondolom, hogy a személyes élmények, traumák, vagy akár a jelenlegi politikai helyzet is hatással lehet arra, hogy hogyan értelmezi az olvasó Karina Sainz Borgo regényét.
Számomra sokszor sokkoló, érzelmileg bénító volt az Adelaidával történtekről olvasni. Viszont hálás vagyok a szerzőnek, hogy megírta ezt a könyvet, mert utólagosan átgondolva az olvasmányélményemet, valamilyen szinten felszabadító tapasztalat is volt.

This was a hard book to read.
I liked the style of the author and translator. I really enjoyed the lighter, more positive interludes from Adelaida's childhood, although even then not all of her memories are lighthearted.
I am glad I have read this book, but I wouldn't reread it. The first half of the book contained a lot of shocks and graphic scenes, and I wasn't sure I would be able to cope with what might happen once Adelaida lost her apartment to squatters.
And yet, I found the second half easier to read.Once Adelaida encountered Sebastian I read the rest of the book the same day.

This book emotionally drained me, but I am glad that I read it. Like all stories in war torn countries, the lives of the people there are complicated.
