A review by soniuz
Fever Dream by Samanta Schweblin

dark mysterious tense
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No

2.0

I understand what the book wants to do and I feel like it succeeds in doing it (= feeling like a fever dream and giving a magical realism twist to the problem of harmful pesticides in soy plantations in Argentina causing many health problems for the population) but I personally just really hate feeling confused and since this book left most things unexplained the main feeling I got from it is frustration, which is not what I’m looking for in reading :/
