Goodbye

A mysterious, sick man in his forties arrives in a remote town, but he refuses to stay in the asylum to receive treatment, choosing instead to stay in a hotel and rent an abandoned house in the town, where he goes up from time to time. The man''s life is almost devoid of events except for receiving regular letters from two different "women" who visit him later and stimulate the curiosity of the townspeople to make judgments and draw different plots for the relationship that the man may have with them. Like Juan Carlos Onte''s other books, this novel surprises the reader with the fact that each sentence is formulated in a unique way and ends unexpectedly, as if it were carefully woven to amaze him and provoke him to contemplate how its author squeezed the energy of each word to convey the greatest amount of feelings.
