4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting for Fans of This Author, March 24, 2004
By 
This review is from: Hide Fox, and All After (Hardcover)
I chose to read this first book from this author after becoming entranced with some of his more recent works; Dr. Neruda's Cure for Evil, and Fearless. Although the book drags at points, it is a true look into the psyche of a brilliant but lost adolescent who seeks to find his place in the world.

An autobiographical aspect is almost always present with this writer, and this first work is no exception. Ygelesias was only 15 when he penned this novel, and the bulk of the characters are teenagers. The protagonist's name RAUL suggests a kinship with his own Rafael, and the irony was not lost on me that RAUL's father is RAFAEL.

I look forward to seeing more work from Yglesias, since the time between novels has become too long.
