One autumn afternoon in Mexico City, 17-year-old Luisa does not return home from school. Instead, she boards a bus to the Pacific coast with Tomás, a boy she barely knows. He seems to represent everything her life is lacking - recklessness, impulse, independence. Tomás may also help Luisa fulfill an unusual obsession: She wants to track down a traveling troupe of Ukrainian dwarfs. According to newspaper reports, the dwarfs recently escaped a Soviet circus touring Mexico. The imagined fates of these performers fill Luisa's surreal dreams.

Beautiful book, alas read with vocal fry
Revisado: 03-02-19
In my humble opinion, this exquisitely written book was tragically misinterpreted by the professional reader's super-nasal voice and constant vocal fry—perhaps better suited to young adult fiction rather than a literary novel about a young adult. The printed version is wistful and poetic. The Audible version sounds weirdly, inappropriately whimsical. Just heartbreaking.
