Incredible first person novella!

This has become one of my favorite works by Bolaño or any other writer for that matter— and perhaps my favorite heroine. The narrative is a kaleidoscopic first person interiority of mirrors and a ‘polymorphic’ account of history and trauma. I mention trauma, but not a grim, bloody sort of trauma, if this makes sense. More of a vision of the past, present, and future.
