This was a very interesting and introspective read. I appreciate Zambra’s writing style and the almost nostalgic feeling his words evoke. While a very short story about a look into the life of a man and his family, Zambra captures the liminal feeling of waiting and memory in such a beautiful and unique way.

Uno de los mejores relatos que he leído este año. No entiendo cómo me tardé tanto en tomar un libro de Zambra.
