I was blown away by this book. Simple, everyday living by a local parapalegic, living in my own neighborhood. It is told with honesty, dignity and self deprecating humor.
Monday, May 11, 7:00 p.m. Desencuentros by Edmundo Paz Soldán
With a unique narrative ability, a precise and forceful language, and plots full of suspense that always culminate in surprise endings, Edmundo Paz Soldán brings us these brief stories in which daily reality has been polished until revealing its mysterious side. In these texts, dark humor and irony are predominant; we see a skeptical vision of life that intermingles tenderness with terror. The world and its ghosts are displayed in a hallucinated, confused and at the same time, ordered manner.
