Inventive and poetic. This book is very different, formatted into an exam, and I suspect others will try to emulate this in the future. You don't need to know anything about Chilean history or Pinochet's regime, but it doesn't hurt if you do.
Thought provoking, and at times, humorous but dark. The book has a unique format, and I love how he uses the multiple choice bubble test format to show that some questions have no correct answer, but sometimes others force you and expect you to choose something. It's really fun to see how many diferent meanings a poem can take just by rearranging the sentences.
Without knowledge of Chile's history and culture, a lot of the references would have been lost on me
This was the kind of book I needed, just to float in a space for a short while
