DISCLAIMER: I am the publisher of the book and thus spent approximately two years reading and editing and working on it. So take my review with a grain of salt, or the understanding that I am deeply invested in this text and know it quite well. Also, I would really appreciate it if you would purchase this book, since it would benefit Open Letter directly.
This isn't Zone 2.0. It's a much different book, more linear, and with infinity percent more periods. But it's still incredibly amazing--captivating from the first chapter to the logical, disturbing end. I think this is going to take off when it comes out this fall, since it offers such interesting insights into the Arab Spring and growing up in today's tumultuous climate. This is a great book club book as well, with all the questions it raises, and is incredibly well written and translated.

I read Calle de Ladrones while in Vistalegre, four blocks from Robadores. The precision of Enardi´s descriptions, his love poems to this complicated Barrio tor my heart and gave me new eyes. He nailed every detail from the rot to the excitement. Reading the final page was like losing a friend. I hope you had a chance to visit the area for a while while you published it.

sorry. Enard. Not the Italian publishing house. My fingers are quiker than my brain.
