Facsímil

Facsímil

Zambra, Alejandro

This daring, bitter and fun book is based on an unsympathetic model, perhaps the most unsympathetic of all: a multiple-choice exam to access university education, specifically the one that thousands of young people, over the decades, had to face to apply to Chilean universities."They did not educate you, they trained you," says a character in this fierce book, made up of stories, lyrical fragments and language exercises, but also texts that we darkly recognize as too close (brochures, advertising, pamphlets). Facsimile addresses the failure of an educational system that has perpetuated inequalities and precarious experience. It is a book against the illusion of a single answer, against the ease that eliminates nuances and neutralizes thought.
