Wstręt. Thomas Bernhard w San Salvadorze

Castellanos Moya's writing feels deeply influenced by Bernhard's philosophical tone. I wonder what inspired the choice to channel that specific mood in a Latin American context.

The story's tone was so oppressive and raw that I felt almost trapped alongside the protagonist. Was this intentional to mirror the themes of disgust and alienation?

The critique of societal and political decay in San Salvador felt visceral. I'm curious about what personal or historical elements shaped this perspective.
