Reviews
"[She is] the heiress of Latin American literature. She wears an opulent, baroque crown, but her feet are bare." --Carlos Fuentes, "Luisa Valenzuela's affecting short stories-parables, really-are cryptic and poetic. Like many Latin American writers, she produces work that verges on the surreal." New York Times Book Review, "Luisa Valenzuela's affecting short stories--parables, really--are cryptic and poetic. Like many Latin American writers, she produces work that verges on the surreal." New York Times Book Review, "Luisa Valenzuela explores the terrain where love and violence, erotic pleasure and death, exist perilously close to each other . . . Valenzuela plays with words, turns them inside out, weaves them into sensuous webs." -- Voice Literary Supplement, "Luisa Valenzuela's affecting short stories--parables, really--are cryptic and poetic. Like many Latin American writers, she produces work that verges on the surreal." -- New York Times Book Review, "[She is] the heiress of Latin American literature.
