Un libro intrigante, lleno de mitos y leyendas. Una lectura que te arrastras a sus páginas introduciéndote en un mundo no tan oscuro como parece, pero mucho más rico de lo que aparenta. Grandiosas descripciones y una evolución pausada pero firme de la historia de este vampiro.

A case of style over substance. Proulx writes striking and occasionally beautiful sentences and her powers of description are very fine indeed, but her characters are aliens impersonating (poorly, at times) human beings. With names like — I wish I were kidding — Budgel Wolfscale, Proulx's pseudo-humans seem caught up in a cultic masculinity that Proulx renders with the relish of a fetishist. Richard Ford's Rock Springs captures the West as it is; this collection, for all the beauty of its prose, lacks the spark of life.
