Enia reviewed Bonzai by Alejandro Zambra
Review of 'Bonzai' on 'Storygraph'
2 stars
This?! This “represents the end of an era, or the beginning of another in [Chile’s] letters”?! this is yet another man masturbating on his own importance while the women in the book are reduced to, at best, set dressing.
I guess it gets a one star for being only 80 pages and another for being kinda writerly in its sentence construction. I would be really mad if I was forced to read a novel-length version of this.
