DNF'd at 20%. It's evident that this is a novel written by a poet, and the poet resents prose so much she can't resist the urge to make every sentence sound poetic. The result is overburdened, ponderous, self-grandiose. The big meditations on death don't offer any original insight and ultimately come off as trite. This is a disappointing waste of a somewhat interesting premise.
There's a lot of rubbish circulating around in the science-fiction market. A treasure like this book is what makes it worth one's time to browse through the rubbish.
The Kindle version is disastrously typeset. I tried my best to finish this, because the topic is very interesting, but the way it displays on Kindle is unreadable.

The system is fascinating in every way, but the arrangement of information needs massive reordering. Once all the pieces are in place in the reader's mind, the rules appear simple, but on first reading the system looks horrifically complicated because the information is not properly organized.
My thoughts here.

Un personaje (y es una generosidad decirle “personaje”) tan rematadamente aburrido como Macabea no tiene derecho a gastarse cinco páginas en morirse.
Needs a proofreader
The book is extraordinarily informative, and should deserve 5 stars just for that reason, but it has an infuriating number of typos.

In principle this should have been an interesting experiment, but the artist does very little with it. Plus it really didn't need all the underage nudity.

Importa un pepino que en la era del Boom este libro le haya dado la vuelta al mundo. Hoy es un libro para tirar a la basura.
