La prosa de Allende es simplemente mágica, adoro como me transporta con sus descripciones. Aunque siento que muchos conceptos del libro se quedaron un poco cortos en explicacion y parecieron solo mencionados por no dejar, los comentarios políticos y sociales que hace Allende son precisos y los comparto completamente. Definitivamente era el libro que necesitaba leer para seguir mi investigación de tesis, ya sea en novela o en trabajo de titulación, los temas de los que trata el libro merecen ser documentados y publicados.
