Keret es un gran cuentista pero est vez me deja totalmente indiferente sin generar relatos que tengan verdadero sentido salvo excepciones 324 Magn fico He disfrutado mucho con su lectura Im genes originales vi etas de una realidad en el margen de lo cre ble 324 Empec con Pizzer a Kamikaze y no pude detenerme este libro de micro relatos al igual que el anterior es un viaje perturbador horrible y entra able las historias peque as y afiladas como navajas llegan directo y te atraviesan sin ninguna clase de consideraci n explorando y reinterpretando algunos de los matices m s inocentes y torcidos de nuestra vida diaria Desde el acto de educar a tus hijos sobre el ritmo del mundo capitalista a trav s de una alcanc a de cerdito que de un modo u otro est vivo hasta la din mica enferma por naturaleza en la relaci n entre una amante y su suegra. Keret no es para todos los gustos en definitivo pero luego de tanta solemnidad y novelas escritas en piloto autom tico se agradece infinitamente esta bocanada de aire fresco 324 Etgar es un h brido entre Carver y Palahniuk con un poco m s de sentido Y ste libro es una recopilaci n de historietas unas mejores otras menos mejores pero casi todas con una buena moraleja No le conoc a pero me ha sorprendido mucho para bien 324 Ok so I don t really know how to start this review Maybe I should start by saying that this book has been a bit of a revelation I m used to read mostly classics fiction and historical novels so this contemporary book apart from being a good friend gift is something new to me Firstly I must say that I have mixed feelings about this book it is divided in short stories each of them very different but very similar at the same time There are some of them which I have enjoyed very much there are some of them which make you think BUT there are also some of them which are VERY strange you don t know what to think or how to react to them such as Pizzeria Kamikaze which is very enjoyable and catchy but as a whole I was like ok but On the other hand there has been moments while reading this book that I ve got angry with maaaany characters for example most of the girls from the short stories were crazy they act like crazy and then the main characters always men ended up not knowing what to do or think about them That annoyed me by no particular reason I don t know it was simply my reaction Maybe because I didn t feel very identified AS A WHOLE I ve enjoyed this new experience getting out of my comfort zone my literary preferences the language is very easy to follow and you don t get tired of reading it the language is also very colloquial and the short stories are easy to read HOWEVER those little details mentioned before the mixed emotions towards some of the stories or the irritation towards some characters make this book a roller coaster of feelings In conclusion this is a good piece of realistic literature objectively even though personally this is not a must read 324 Empez bien Historias bastante cortas pero interesantes Sin embargo perd inter s por la mitad Los cuentos parec an historias al azar no ten an mucho sentido un punto Cosas pasaban y ya Ni siquiera recuerdo las historias solo un par que impactaron pero muchas parecieron imprescindibles Fue dif cil terminarlo 324
