Evocative and imaginative, these narrative essays cover a range of themes but share the unique perspective of the author that allows the reader to draw new connections between diverse topics. The hidden tomb of Brodsky in Venice, the elusiveness of the indefinable Portuguese word "saudade," and the idea of language being a break between infancy and childhood are some of the subjects that Valeria Luiselli explores. Shining a different light on aspects of daily life, this group of commentary also demonstrates the prowess of a promising young Mexican writer. ""Evocativos e imaginativos, estos ensayos narrativos cobran una gama de temas pero tienen en comun la perspectiva unica de la autora que le permite al lector encontrar nuevas conexiones entre los topicos diversos. La tumba escondida de Brodsky en Venecia, el caracter esquivo de la indefinible palabra portuguesa "saudade" y la idea de que el lenguaje es una ruptura entre la infancia y la ninez son algunos de los temas explorados por Valeria Luiselli. Arrojando una luz unica sobre diversos aspectos de la vida diaria, esta compilacion de comentario tambien demuestra la proeza de una prometedora joven escritora mexicana.""
