Review of 'The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
I am beginning to suspect that Oscar was basically Harold Lauder, but written as a fully developed character, sympathetically. And of course with the multigenerational Latino style à la Isabelle Allende or Gabriel Garcia Marquez... like basically Stephen King rewritten by an author with talent, remixed through Los Bros, Marvel and DC comics. It's pretty meta.
