The Magus - John Fowles

Too long, definitely. This is a psychological thriller in the style of 1960s trends. There are quite a number of pages of very good storytelling and the English language flows brilliantly, but in the end the plot borders on the absurd, I'm afraid. 

Resurrection Walk - Michael Connolly

Mickey Haller —the Lincoln Lawyer— and Harry Bosch: what a powerful team, they know every trick in the book and no murder goes unpunished. This is a courtroom drama full of legal details and unexpected twists. An entertaining read.

Puntobobo - Itxaso Martin Zapirain

Eleberria tartekatutako bi zatiz osatuta dago. Ama bat eta bere bi alaben istorioa alde batetik, eta alaba horietako bat eta bere alaba propioaren arteko elkarrizketa bizia bestetik. Amatasuna eta autismoa dira gai nagusiak, nik uste. Errealismo magikoaren ukituak ditu.

La bailarina - Patrick Modiano

Breve novela que no he acabado de entender. Me ha pasado antes con autores franceses. Como acostumbra, Modiano juega la carta de París, las calles y plazas que hay que atravesar para ir de aquí a allá, y recuerda los tiempos en los que frecuentó a la tal bailarina. 

The Progress of Love - Alice Munro

I am at a loss for words to describe Munro's work. So I'll just quote Wikipedia: "Her stories explore human complexities in a simple but meticulous prose style". So it is, and the setting is one or another small town in Huron County, Canada. Fortunately, there are more books by Alice Munro that I haven't read yet.

La Antártica empieza aquí - Benjamín Labatut

Así llaman en Chile a la Antártida. Colección de cuentos anteriores reescritos para esta nueva edición. No se le puede negar al autor una excelente mano para la literatura, pero su tendencia al tremendismo no me convence.

Kafka Was the Rage - Anatole Broyard

Kafka was the rage in Greenwich Village around 1946. Broyard, newly returned from the war, took advantage of the GI Bill and inmersed himself into the effervescent atmosphere of the time. Years later, he wrote this unfinished book about those days, when he lived intoxicated by sex and literature.
