Hi again! Now I'm gonna talk about my favourite book, "la ciudad está triste"
"la ciudad está triste", written by Ramón Díaz Eterovic. It is a police novel, set in the
years of dictatorship in the country, where the atmosphere could feel heavier,
with harsher and more tense ambients than one could imagine. Heredia, the
main character must investigate the murder of a young university student, but
when investigating the case finds links with more serious problems that are
difficult to leave. I really like this book and the rest of this author for the
way he relates the stories, from the melancholy of the main character, to how
he perceives his surroundings with touches of pessimism and poetry. The way in
which he explains events, places and sensations (personally) gives a great
pleasure to the reader, which keeps him really focused at the moment of
advancing in the story. The main character lives alone with his cat, in an
apartment in the center of the city, where he has friendships with strange people
or extravagant workers of Santiago. I recommend reading this book, personally I liked it and
even at times I identified in the way of thinking of Heredia.
