A review by jackroche
The Burning Plain and Other Stories by Juan Rulfo

Did not finish book.

Read “Tell Them Not to Kill Me”. I was exhausted so I may not have been in the best state to appreciate it, but it didn’t quite land for me. I appreciate the subtle transition from a sympathetic portrayal of a scared old man to a reckoning with an unreliable narrator’s sociopathic self-justification, but that’s something I understood intellectually rather than emotionally.
