5.0

Uma história curta porém bastante realista e palpável, os personagens são complexos e bem desenvolvidos.
É um bom livro para incentivar ainda mais a empatia, pois é capaz de te faz sentir a dor dos personagens, se inconformar com as injustiças e vibrar com as pequenas conquistas.
Mostra o mundo e o ser humano como ele é, e trás uma realidade que que não me espantaria se tivesse acontecido fora da ficção, mesmo que muito triste e opressiva.
Apresenta como as crenças e atitudes do ser humano podem impactar e implicar no destino do próximo.
O protagonista é extremamente forte em sua luta contra todas as marcas deixadas por terceiros em sua vida, e também é falho, comete erros que o tornam ainda mais real e tridimensional.
É impossível terminar esse livro sem se sentir tocado, sem sentir o coração vazio, pois parece que a história fica inacabada, assim como a jornada de Raimundo em busca de si mesmo, dos seus sonhos e auto aceitação.

the story is fine, but the writing was a complete mess to me. it tried doing something different but got so confusing and a bit exhausting to read. i didn't connect to the characters and the story doesn't go any further than what the synopsis tells us. and the ending, i mean, it felt lazy. it had the potential to be a lot more.
