Opis:Fragmentos de la tierra prometida by Fernando Contreras-Castro (2012), offers an allegorical reading of the present by presenting a dystopian future. Global capitalism practices (social exclusion; exploitation of immigrants; workers’ ‘consumption’; the ‘perverse’ effects of scientific development on the planet, turned into a giant dumping site; technology as a tool for social control…) are allegorized in each of the narrative capsules –fragments of an unsettling world- of this example of Costa Rican nano literature.
