When I looked behind us, the world seemed incomprehensible and eternal.

What a fantastic read this one was. The characters were great. The writing style was so good and the story was weird, introspective and insightful, I loved everything about this novella.

Leído por encimita. Más para quitarla del camino. Cristina Rivera Garza es una de mis mayores frustraciones. Leo tan buenas críticas de su obra que no entiendo porque a mi simplemente no me acaba de gustar. Seguiré intentándolo. Como señalaba Borges, quizá sólo es que no ha escrito el libro para mí. Y tal vez nunca lo escriba. Trataré de conseguir "Nadie me verá llorar".

Reading it backwards and forwards helped me understand better what was happening, like turning a puzzle over and over. Very enjoyable to read but I'm going to be wondering about it for a while.
