Martín Felipe Castagnet, al igual que Enríquez, dice que una de las ideas que más le entusiasma de haber publicado en ese mercado es que lo pueda leer Stephen King.

"Cuentos hermosos, que me recordaron mucho a los polacos de Bashevis Singer, que arrancaban de pequeñas historias con una forma para nada grandilocuente para de a poco evocar el mundo entero. Gran traducción de Martín Felipe Castagnet."

Melissa's review
of
Seventeen Syllables and Other Stories (Revised and Expanded):
"Yamamoto’s stories are really good and I think she should be more famous. It starts strong and ends strong with High Heels and Florentine Gardens. She is able to convey the deep emotions behind common place experience in a very matter of fact way. Al"

"No suelo leer para que los libros me dejen "algo" (aunque siempre dejan algo). No suelo leer libros considerados de "auto ayuda". Leo para disfrutar de la lectura, de las palabras. Sin embargo, nunca me pasó que un libro me hablara tanto. La construc"

“Technology isn't rational; with luck, it's a runaway horse, foaming at the mouth, ready to throw itself off a cliff in desperation. Our problem is that culture's tied to that horse.”

“You would think that living more than a hundred years would strengthen your character, but no. We are still the same primitive animals from the time we're born to the moment we die, and then after we die, too.”

“Si una cocinera no huele bien, no es puntual, rápida, prolija alegra y un poco desvergonzada, le había dicho, no sirve para cocinera; puede ser que sepa cocinar pero no sirve para cocinera y tarde o temprano eso se nota.”

“And yet I knew with all my heart that Mr. Lincoln was President. We were at war. We were not at war. All was chaos. All was calm. A device had been invented for distant communication. No such device existed. Nor ever could. The notion was mad. And yet I had seen it, had used it; could hear, in my mind, the sound it made as it functioned.
It was: telegraph.
My God!”
― Lincoln in the Bardo

“The door refused to open. It said, “Five cents, please.”
He searched his pockets. No more coins; nothing. “I’ll pay you tomorrow,” he told the door. Again he tried the knob. Again it remained locked tight. “What I pay you,” he informed it, “is in the nature of a gratuity; I don’t have to pay you.”
“I think otherwise,” the door said. “Look in the purchase contract you signed when you bought this conapt.”
In his desk drawer he found the contract; since signing it he had found it necessary to refer to the document many times. Sure enough; payment to his door for opening and shutting constituted a mandatory fee. Not a tip.
“You discover I’m right,” the door said. It sounded smug.
From the drawer beside the sink Joe Chip got a stainless steel knife; with it he began systematically to unscrew the bolt assembly of his apt’s money-gulping door.
“I’ll sue you,” the door said as the first screw fell out.
Joe Chip said, “I’ve never been sued by a door. But I guess I can live through it.”
