"A striking dystopia, where political satire borders on science fiction. In this book, the human nature appears repulsively weak and incredibly strong at the same time. Fierce – and full of love for life. The novel by Casares – a close friend of Borges – is a story of a war between young and elderly people. This is a key to understanding of what the modern community may be, where the line separating the law, violence, and self-destruction can be trespassed with one step." Translated from Spanish by Anna Vovchenko In Ukrainian.
