Reseña del libro "All at Once and Not at All (en Inglés)"
All at Once and Not at All is a compilation of Daniel Eduardo Martinez's first seven volumes--The Great Collapse of the Finite Revolution, Orange Cream, I Write the Words, but I Yell Within, and Merro Bones, which is its own compilation comprised of three previously published works: Bubbidy, Olive or Brie, and Better the Weather When. An imaginative exploration of his dearly beloved home state of Arizona, all stories take place in or around the fictional Southern Arizona towns of Totenbett and Merrotinay, with the occasional foray into Northern Arizona's Flagstaff and Grand Canyon regions as well. Ranging thematically from dystopia to reincarnation--including a haunted house, a clearly troubled serial killer, and an overarching corporate society of automation and Auto Tuners--the various volumes contained in All at Once and Not at All additionally employ a wide range of stylistic freedom. The third book of Merro Bones--Better the Weather When--is written entirely as dialogue; Orange Cream is presented as "a novel, overlapping and backward;" and in general--whether with regard to The Great Collapse of the Finite Revolution, I Write the Words, but I Yell Within, Bubbidy or Olive or Brie--every transgressive story and poem, every radical twist and turn, showcases Daniel Eduardo Martinez's unique narration, wild imagination, and deep understanding of format, presentation, and nuance.
