tetromino 's review for:

The Adventures of China Iron by Gabriela Cabezón Cámara
2.5
challenging reflective medium-paced

Definitely think I was lacking crucial context for this book considering the original poem and not much knowledge of Argentinian literature but idk, didn't do much for me here as a standalone work. I get and respect the attempt to position the reader outside the world in the last part but it just became such word slurry to me combined with the extremely long sentences.

Well, Argentinian book for the reading challenge donezo, I think the best part of this book was just prompting me to google about Argentinian fauna, vizcachas are super cute!
