The stream of narration pulls you along and leaves you breathless. I was captivated but also felt held captive, incapable of escaping the text's inertia and lack of periods.
A gritty portrait of a small Mexican town overrun with poverty, drugs, whores, abuse, gangs, violence. The novel circles around the murder of the local “witch” and every chapter presents a different characters life and point of view, slowly untangling the turn of events.
Relentless, and genius.
