Walden es la prueba de que se puede encontrar algo hermoso, y escribir algo digno de esa belleza, incluso en lo más simple. No es una lectura fácil, pero incluso entendiendo una pequeña fracción puedes contagiarte de ideas que te harán pensar por días.

This book was my first experience reading a Lovecraft story, and I must say, I’m not disappointed. I love how it brings back a sense of mystery about nature, legends, and small towns—something that seems lost in our current culture, where everything can be found on the internet.I also enjoyed the way you can feel the narrator's lived experiences, as those experiences are uniquely their own. You know they were scared, as they sometimes stumbled to tell the story.After reading this, I’m definitely looking forward to exploring more of Lovecraft's works.

"Tenochtitlan" is a deeply humane story that explores the fears, ambitions, and curiosity of all parties involved.


While it may not be a perfectly precise historical account, I think it's accurate enough to give you a little more context about the fall of the aztecs, a story that has been told many times before, but not to often from the indigenous side.


It puts the mexicans on the center of the story, even as they play on both sides of the conflict and will finally face defeat. The story shows that America wasn't discovered, the land weren't empty, nor were their inhabitants savages in need of Christianity for a chance of salvation.
