This short story is about a long wait - it’s as brutal and real as life can be.

E assim é. Um retrato da vida de quem garantiu que alguma coisa pode funcionar e acaba com tudo avariado. Poderoso e cativante um pequeno livro a não perder.

So wonderfully layered in the textures of humanity - I found you learn just enough to make you connected and curious. However much I’d love to know what happens, I too enjoy guessing and hoping like The Colonel

Esta libro mantiene mi argumento de que la literatura de Latino America es la mejor cough.
