chris (Japan) (2010/06/18): Dorfman's novel, a recent addition to the growing corpus of Chilean exile literature, relates the futuristic exploits of a politically asphyxiated dictatorship. By meshing disparate elements (the propagandistic functions of comic strips, archeological pseudo-scholarship, the mythic satire of fetal rebellion as children refuse to be born into the world as it is), Dorfman has created a ponderous, provocative, if somewhat abstruse and wearisome experimental narrative that, despite its finely wrought translation, will reward persistent readers only. For comprehensive fiction collections. Lawrence Olszewski, OCLC, Dublin, Ohio Copyright 1987 Reed Business Information, Inc.
