Creo que me han faltado referencias para poder disfrutar de este libro. Se trata de una serie, más que de historias cortas, de poemas en prosa sobre una cultura y una civilización que desconozco y por lo tanto, en muchos casos, no he sabido de qué me quería hablar la autora.

Esta es la segunda vez que leo este libro, pero es como si fuera la primera porque no recordaba nada de él. Me encanta leer a Muñoz Molina. La prosa evocadora, llena de sensaciones y momentos consigue atraparme. Pero esta historia me ha parecido un poco previsible y antigua. No ha terminado de engancharme y aunque es cierto que en algunos momentos he disfrutado de la narración, se me ha hecho un poco pesada.

malglam reviewed The ghost and Mrs Muir by R. A. Dick
Review of 'The ghost and Mrs Muir' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Another atonish story of how a woman has to rely in a ghost (or in mistycal visions o something else) to have her way.
Lucy Muir is a widow who want to scape her in laws. She decide to rent a cheap house by the sea, hunted by a ghost. This way, she can live the live that she wants, far from the reach of her family.
In the end, as the story is written in the forties of twenty century, the woman and the ghost end together. Another ending wouldn't have be decent after so many years living in the same house.
Anyway, it was an funny and quick reading.

This was a light and easy reading. Even when you know, more or less, what's going to happen, the story catches you and you don't want to put it down. The story is very well written and it's the details and the atmosphere what gets you there. It was exactly what I wanted to read at this moment.

Review of 'Never-ending Story (Roc)' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
Hace unos meses me di cuenta de que nunca había leído la historia interminable y me había quedado solo con la parte de la historia que cuenta la peli.
Cómo tantas otras veces, el libro es mucho mejor y, aunque es cierto que lo hubiera disfrutado más siendo más joven, me ha gustado muchísimo, especialmente la segunda parte.
