Overwhelming Birth. Book One

This text is not inscribed in magical realism, which consists of narrating an altered reality to make it prodigious and surprising. In this novel Alfonso narrates the historical reality of a family in the environment that he had to live in during his youth, but it is so amazing and hard to believe that some can confuse it with magical realism.
When I read it I felt an intense compassionate emotion for the situations that its characters go through, although I also laughed out loud from time to time. A novel writer suddenly launches a novel whose merit is not precisely literary, but rather in the inner story that he recounts, on how funny it is, and on the remembrance and good taste he has had in telling it.
Whoever reads it, will wait impatiently for its second and third volumes.
