Este conjunto de relatos breves de Bruce Johnson es la forma idónea de mostrar la convivencia entre la grandeza y el horror de lo cotidiano. La complejidad de las relaciones intrafamiliares es narrada con un laconismo similar a una sombra que nos dibuja escenas desde una perspectiva marcada por el estilo peculiar de su autor. Snapshots está compuesto por una humanidad particular y universal a la vez, un esfuerzo por encontrar lo real en la vida.
This chapbook of short stories by Bruce Johnson is the ideal expression of the cohabitation of grandeur and horror in everyday life. The complexity of the familial relationships is narrated with a terseness that draws scenes for us as if in shadow, from a perspective marked by the peculiar style of the author. Snapshots is composed with a sensibility both particular and universal, an attempt to find what is real in our lives.
El peso muerto en que nos convierte la vejez, la necesidad de poseer a los que amamos, la pérdida de la magia con el fin de la infancia y el aislamiento y la inutilidad en que nos sume la tecnología son algunas de las situaciones que Johnson aborda con ironía en sus relatos.—Diario La Hora
La potencia con la que estos instantes son plasmados nos permiten acércanos a ellos desde diferentes perspectivas.—Marcelo Cruz
