hmmmm interesting
at first i didnt like felipe's whole stream of consciousness thing with the insanely long sentences but i grew to enjoy it- and i also liked his horrific interjections to the story (eg the bird scene).
not sure if the poetic rambly style is completely for me but the writing is beautiful. i also was a little confused at the end (about what actually ended up happening to paloma and iquela? i think i slightly was not paying attention in the last 10 or so pages)
felipe's ending was wonderfully described i thought
