There were just too many unanswered questions in this book. I don't mind being left wondering sometimes, but everything in this book was unexplained. It was a very fast read though.

Writing is exquisite, reminded me of Ivan Turgenev's First Love. But other than that...um.

Anatomia de um desaparecimento é um livro simples, mas com uma história interessante. Fiquei com a sensação de ter lido um livro sofisticado. Talvez por causa dos personagens. Não é um livro que deixa explícito mesmo falando o óbvio.  Foi super gostoso de ler. Tem um ritmo que atrai o leitor por ter capítulos e rápidos. Apesar disso não nos deixa com a sensação de estar faltando algo. Se falta, é intencional.
