La crítica ha dicho : «Ramiro Sanchiz construye una fábula radicalmente contemporánea y exquisitamente cervantina.

Germán Sierra «Ramiro Sanchiz es un genio y lo vuelve a demostrar con esta novela de carretera». Luis Carlos Barragán Castro «Nostalgias del futuro que no fue, personajes sorprendentes y el new weird en estado puro, con la pluma de Sanchiz, que cada día toca mejor».

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
"Federico Stahl is one of the greatest characters in Latin American literature of this century." --Edmundo Paz Soldán
It all happened in the nineties. Oil not only ran out, but the thicket grew from the depleted oilfields--and, at the same time, from the large amount of garbage in the oceans--a new life form capable of digesting plastic, but toxic to human beings. This great pandemic nearly destroyed civilization. Worse: while it progressed during the twenty-first century, humanity learned to survive in a world no longer globalized. A world of provinces where Federico Stahl, former teenage piano virtuoso, wanders in a concert tour that will take him to oneiric and haunting towns, to singular characters (such as an old Michael Jackson impersonator and an Argentinian dwarf porn star), along ruined highways in the thicket, and to secrets of stranger futures lurking in the wilderness, among post-apocalyptic pirates, lost toys, and old piano variations. Ramiro Sanchiz, one of the most peculiar voices in contemporary Uruguayan narrative, composes a suggestive and seductive novel, permeated with futuristic melancholy.
