The Taiga Syndrome by Cristina Rivera Garza

3.0

***3.0***

Originally written in Spanish, The Taiga syndrome is a classic noir detective story. A female detective is hired by a husband to find his wife who eloped with another man to Taiga. Taiga is a place which is kind of underbelly of society. It is also said that people catch a syndrome that causes them to go mad in a desire to leave the place but are unable to do so.

There was a lot of parts in the story which were not clear, kind of hazy dream like situations. It was confusing but the writing style is poetic and sensory-based. Most bizarre reading experience.


Happy Reading!!!
