Synopsis "Palmeras de la Brisa Rapida (in Spanish)"

With the reliable humor that characterizes his chronicles, Villoro travels through the most symptomatic points of the Mexican southeast: one would say that he shows us a tour of the peninsula, but, he shares the results of an immense inner journey.

Es un libro muy interesante, pero si no hubiera viajado a la Península de Yucatán y no me interesara la arqueología mexicana, hubiera sido difícil disfrutarlo. Eso me gusta de la literatura, que muchas veces nos obliga a pensar y no solo a disfrutarla.
