Quite unlike anything I have ever read before. To enjoy this, one must refrain from any attempt to "connect the dots". It is a meandering, bewildering, mystical, and utterly haunting portrait of repressive societies, a clever and keen-eyed allegory for life under the Franco regime. Without names, setting, time, or place, it is a work that transcends time and all notions of language and expression, and actually timeless.
