Description: A novel in Spanish that evolves as a delirious train of neologistic metaphors surrounding the lives of charismatic characters. The reading is decidedly slow and intentionally provocative for mental wandering by the reader.  An immediate "translation" for a neologism may be quite different upon later reflection, and re-reflection.  A challenge, a rhythm, a poetic flow of virgin terms, a wide spectrum of words with flavors that fluctuate with the mood of set and characters, a reflection of neo-surreal worlds,... literally a novel.
