Explore Two Brothers Authored By Bernardo Atxaga Presented In Paper Edition

amazing that a book this short could be this offensive, It's as if Atxaga wondered, should I write a book that invokes hateful tropes about women evil! jealous! irrational! scheming! destroyers of men! or developmentally disabled people bestial! lustful! monstrous! and thought, damn, I can do both! One of those books that make you think, male writers need to stop.
I think that this book was great and very controversial if you look behind the value of reading it at face value, I believe that he is using the irony of the nature of mankind and how we are naturally cruel to bring to light the aspect of mistreating people.
I personally didn't get the feeling that it was specifically directed towards women, I don't think it was offensive at all and was symbolizing the destruction of humankind as a whole by the cruelty of other humans.
Lo leí hace mucho. Me gusto el enfoque de Atxaga, la historia los personajes Txiko, Bernardo, ba igual geatu naiz As he dies leaving his two boys orphaned, Paulo's father lays on him the duty to look after his retarded but overgrown younger brother, for otherwise Daniel will be put away in an institution.
But Daniel never listens to his brother, who is unable to exert any authority over him, Instead Daniel, age twenty and still in the throes of puberty, goes off in an inept, fumbling pursuit of the village girls as they ride past on their bicycles on the way to sewing lessons or cakebaking classes.
Among these girls are pretty Teresa and her plain friend, Carmen, a girl disfigured by a birthmark on one cheek, Both of them are sweet on Paulo, the quiet, irresolute, but handsome lad who works in the family sawmill, while Teresa is the reluctant, indeed disgusted, object of Daniel's dreams.
Each girl schemes to cut the other out and win favor with Paulo, All ends in tears. And the narrators of this story, who take turns relating the tale, are creatures of the wild, driven by their inner voices a bird, squirrels, a black snake.
