amariel's review

Un libro torpe, donde todo es secundario.
Las comparaciones son extensas cuando innecesarias, escuetas cuando esenciales.
Las escenas que deberían dar horror dan como mucho repugnancia.
Todos los personajes (y algunos nombres) son estereotípicos, y apenas se esuchan entre sí; muchos parecen incluidos tan sólo para incrementar la sensación de confusión y carecen de importancia.

El cambio de narrativa de a cuarta parte fue demasiado incongruente y dejé de leer.

El uso de la dictadura como justificación de los cuerpos es una elección casi de mal gusto. 
La homo y bisexualidad se tratan con un misticismo caduco.

La mejor escena: cuando dan las cenizas de la madre al río.

Still, not sure about the rating, the ending was kind of anticlimactic and I expected a nicer bow tying it all.
Review to come!
