A review by bstephens
The Shape of the Ruins by Juan Gabriel Vásquez

3.0

Timely book about the obsession with conspiracy theories and how public historical events can become personal. I found the detail about the historical events at times to be repetitive and a bit drawn out. Also, there was a back story about the children of one of the main characters that deserved more attention and may have provided an interesting contrast to the investigations. Well written regardless.
