Playful
A playful novel and exceptionally well written. It has been a difficult transition for many of the 'political' writers of the 1970s to write in a contemporary, "less immediate" Latin America...Dorfman, with this novel, manages the transition well.

Playful,
This review is from: The Nanny and the Iceberg: A Novel (Paperback)
A playful novel and exceptionally well written. It has been a difficult transition for many of the 'political' writers of the 1970s to write in a contemporary, "less immediate" Latin America...Dorfman, with this novel, manages the transition well.

My only reservation is the exceptionally hermetic last two (or so) paragraphs...nevertheless, if the journey is more worthy than the final destination, the novel will not disappoint at all.
