What an interesting and strange book! It is a good reminder of the innumerable possibilities and complexities of science and philosophy, even if a principle in itself is quite simple, and in that sense reminds me of the works of [a:Stanislaw Lem|22333075|Stanislaw Lem|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png]. I have a soft spot for this kind of sf.
I really cannot imagine how the author went about writing this novel, if it was a lot of thinking and coordinating work, or if it came about quite intuitively. I would also love to be able to read this in its original language.

Es lo más raro que he leído en MUCHO, MUCHO tiempo. Surrealista se queda corto.

I really enjoyed this one -- as it "warns" in its cover blurb, it's neither a novel with a straightforward narrative, nor an anthology of self-contained short stories. It's more of a series of interconnected vignettes set at various points following some kind of event that shattered time and space, and often involving powerful AIs. Not easy to describe, but just the kind of experimental weirdness that works well for me, and a lot of really neat concepts dealing with time, artificial intelligence, consciousness, and more. My first four-star rating from this year's P.K. Dick nominees.
