I got this book in a fair and I must say: I was amazed. This book can make into various themes and situations without losing momentum (most of the times). The book has a clear message to me by the end of it, but the various plotlines are not dived into or developed enough. Social commentary isn't as present in it as I initially thought it was going to be, but it's pretty great to see a story so conscious (or at least tried to be) about my country's social and economical situation.

At the end of the day, this book is a tragicomedy full of absurdities and unsolved problems that sadly are set in stone to never be solved in the near future, just like Brazil.
