That's the kind of psychotic wizardry and malfeasant meta-terror you'll be dealing with for nearly 900 pages. There's no trick. No chi

Nada by Carmen Laforet

Urgent, violent book with gothic overtones, which seemed strange (but delightful) for a novel dubbed “autobiographical.” I didn’t research Carmen Laforet—don’t even have a Wikipedia level of familiarity with her life, but this didn’t seem like a book ...more
