A Master Work,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cold Tales (Eridanos Press Library) (Paperback)
Elegant, arresting, unique. One marvels at Pinera's command of narrative and language. Read and see what Cubans have been raving about for decades.

a funhouse of the absurd and bizarre,

This review is from: Cold Tales (Eridanos Press Library) (Paperback)
Some stories so short they barely take much of the page, yet each secure in its completeness, and its to-the-pointness, even if that point eludes us. Other, more expanded stories, can get more outrageous page by page, but still, these stories all seem grounded as perfectly normal reality, and perhaps in a wonderful way, they are. Good pre-reading for his fine novel, Rene's Flesh, also part of the excellent Eridanos Library of books.

not an objective review,

Virgilio is my grandmother's first cousin, his father and her mother were siblings. I unfortunately have few memories myself but loads of family stories that always made me attracted to his persona and his work. I wish more of his work were available here. Thanks, Amazon!
