Rezensionen

This detective novel radically scrambles what we think of, and how we relate to, the genre ... The case [is] "full of psychological nooks and crannies. Of poetic shadows. Gender traps. Metaphors. Metonyms." That also describes Rivera Garza's exceptional style, and the deeply rewarding experience of reading Death Takes Me. The novel is dense and elliptical, a dreamscape with a powerful undertow ... [A] harrowing and labyrinthine masterpiece
