Esta historia describe perfectamente la inevitabilidad de ser una madre queriendo proteger a su hijo y no poder lograrlo por mucho que lo desees o lo intentes. Angustiante.
Le echo en falta más peso a la historia en general porque ciertas partes son brutales pero gran parte del desarrollo es más bien poco interesante. Aún así vale la pena porque jamás deja de hacerte sentir que hay algo mal, y que es inevitable que suceda.
Es un constante esperar el golpe pero no saber cuándo o cómo llegará.

I had to read some reviews on order to make sure that I understood the gist. This is a creepy and fast read.
Pairs nicely with a cup of tea, just not my cup of tea. Hard to get into, but within 30 pages it kept me more or less glued to the page until the last one. Left a bit unsatisfied, but that's at least partially the point. Glad I read it. Didn't change my life. Three stars.
wish i could have read this through in one sitting but life did not allow… genuinely unsettling and relentless and full of dread! powerful thematically, i really enjoyed it as an ecocritical work and i loved the structure of the narrative… started kind of dubiouslyyyy like i wasn’t totally sold on its framing but then really took off. stuck the landing. big recommend

1.5 stars. I totally didn't get it. I mean, I mostly understood the issue, but I didn't connect with the structure, and there were a handful of times where I lost track of who was talking and who was who.
What did I just read? It’s a short but a very dark book. I would recommend to read it in a sitting or two, like I did, to help make sense of what little I could, by then end.
Quite disturbed after finishing this book, as I started to understand but the story really did feel like a fever dream, with so much going on and out of place. An acquired taste of horror and psychological thriller.

Increíble. Me saco el aliento por muchos momentos. Lo leería de nuevo.

If you want to spend 3 hours wanting to smack a woman and a kid, I've got the book for you!!
I really just wasn't a fan. I think that might be in part because it's from another country and I think I'm missing some cultural aspects that didn't translate well.
