On Mexican Time: A New Life in San Miguel by Tony Cohan
4.0
On Mexican Time is just that. Sprawling, sometimes maddeningly languid, jumping from one story to another with only a new paragraph to separate the two. Yet, I know this Mexico of days of old and I relish being transported to my favorite place without the hassle of Mexico City’s aeropuerto. A beautiful novel, one I will love to reread in the days of barren winter.
For the people that disliked this book due to Cohen’s descriptive writing, to each their own, I suppose. I feel like you can’t be in Mexico without being flooded with colors, textures, smells, tastes, and sounds and that’s exactly what made this piece so reminiscent to me.
