Summary: ... or why would you want to be a loser
Comment: Soriano writes about the losers in ourselves, yet he does so with the most enlightening glance, a sweet'n' sour prose that keep you awake untill you reach "el fin" ("the end"). There is an ex-boxer-to-be in this novel, a tango singer who is no good enough to sing in the tango capital, cheap hotel rooms and uncomfortable trains. Soriano mixes all these ingredients in a well seasoned recipe which also includes an ironic picture of the Peronist Argentine in the 50's, and serves this delghtful dish on the barren (yet majestic in its solitude) patagonic landscape.
