Começarmos por saber como a história acaba podia jogar contra o livro, mas é no que nos conduz a esse final que está o mais interessante. Andrés Barba tem em República Luminosa uma escrita bem coerente com a história: sem demasiados rodeios, seca e directa, dura, quando tem que ser. E tudo acaba por resultar muito bem, com uma narrativa que prende e acelera o leitor.
O ponto extra é alcançado com a revelação final, quando cria a cativante imagem que dá título ao livro. Barba conseguiu a minha atenção.

This was compelling. I'm going to ruminate on this for awhile.
