akirathelemur 's review for:
The Literary Conference
by César Aira
This is the second book of Aira's that I've read, and I am, again, amazed at how he can pack so many things into so few pages and have the result feel as light and effortless as it does. The Literary Conference is a very odd book. A bit of sci-fi, a bit of a love story, a bit of metafiction, a bit of a reflective essay. There is no reason for the various pieces to fit together as well as they do, but it all manages to work, and to work spectacularly.
