Negocios

Rating:
Summary: Very realistic book
Review: Even though it has some profanity and whatever this is one of the most realistic books I've ever read. Not only is interesting but Mr. Dias goes into the dominican emphazis with out any barriers.

Rating:
Summary: Drown in Spanish
Review: From the cover and title I wasn't aware that this was "Drown", another interesting book by Junot Diaz, translated into Spanish.

Summary: Wonderful fiction.
Review: The reader above has just given this book 3 stars on the basis of the fact that he/she mistakenly thought it was a different book. Hardly fair to the author. The back of Negocios clearly states that it is a translated work and the inner page states even more clearly that it was published in English under the title Drown. "Este libro fue publicado por primera vez en ingles, en forma encuadernada, baja el titulo Drown por Riverhead Books." That this reader would review a wonderful book on the basis of the reader's own error is most unfair. Drown/Negocios, published in English/Spanish, is a glorious collection of stories and I recommend it to all lovers of good fiction.
