Enriquez hizo en esta obra un universo hermoso y místico sobre la vida infante hasta adulta de Gaspar.
Me parece impresionante el desarrollo de cada una de las historias entrelazadas que abarca el libro, a cada personaje la autora le construye un trasfondo y sentido de ser inmenso sin perder de vista la relación que tiene o mejor dicho el granito de arena que aporta a la principal trama. 
Es sumamente inquietante el pasar de cada página y descubrir qué hecho retorcido se narrará con la ayuda de un lenguaje macabro y aterrador. 
Sin duda alguna este libro cumplió con mis expectativas y es un sí o sí de lecturas obligatorias para conocer a autores latinoamericanos.

This is a book I’m sure I’ll think about into perpetuity just because of how disturbing and messed up parts of this story are! I think the reason I can’t give it 5 stars is because it meanders. I wanted it to get to the point faster. I still really enjoyed my time reading this and I think it’s a solid 4.5 because of the imagery and just sheer brutality and sexuality. Fabulous horror novel but be prepared for the long haul.
