Hell Has No Limits

Jose Donoso With its stark atmosphere and dazzling alterations of perspective in time and gender, "Hell Has No Limits, anticipates the qualities of better-known works of this Chilean magic-realist. This vivid novel evokes the sweetness and despair during one fateful day in the collective existence of Estacion El Olivo, a decayed community marked for doom as surely as Donoso's central character, the transvestite dancer/prostitute la Maneula.
