Maybe it's a case of right book at the right time (meaning the worst time, considering the 'right time' for this book is a global pandemic) but this hallucinatory, somewhat impenetrable little novel by Rodrigo Márquez Tizano hit just right as I was suffering some neurological malfunctioning brought on by COVID-19.

This book is nuts, I can't say I even fully understood it. Its visceral and odd, filthy but not dirty. The story feels like mud being layered and sliding off itself.

Weird little fever dream / acid trip of a book. A stone skipping along the surface of a dystopian world.
