Narrative In Favor Of Books Requiem for a Woman's Soul

This is a brilliant book, but it isn't beautiful, it is terrifying! Requiem for Woman's soul is intense, raw, savage, and for many readers it will open and/or re-open wounds. The book takes us back to the military Argentinian dictatorship that was in power from the mid 70s to the early 80s, a regime known as the National Reorganisation Process. I had to stop reading this book many times to talk about the it with my spouse and child, because the level of violence was truly disturbing and I found myself in tears more than once. I didn't want to believe this ever happened even though inside me, I knew that this and even worse events have occurred not just in Argentina but all over the world. Torture is ubiquitous, far more prevalent than we can ever imagine. If you are one of those who think that the violent scenes we see on tv shows like Game of Thrones are just figments of a writer's imagination, think again! Indescribable acts of torture that many be considered as mere fiction have happened and in many instances continue happening all over the world.

If you are considering reading this book let me give you just a piece of advice: if you are easily disrupted by violence in books then perhaps it is better if you don't read this book for it may have a rather negative impact on you.

Evaluation Epithetical Books Requiem for a Woman's Soul

This book is only about 100 pages, but it is the most difficult book that i have ever read. It speaks of Susana, a woman anticipating marriage and preparing a home for herself and her husband. Due to someone she knew in college, she is abducted by the government. She suffers torture and horrible living conditions. Her story is told by scraps of paper snuck out of the prison.

Wow! This book is horrific and heartbreaking. While I do recommend it, it is not for the faint of heart. So my recommendation would come with a caution. Omar Rivabella wasted no time in getting to the horror of mankind, all the while offering a testament to the human spirit to survive. I honestly don't know that I can adequately describe this book or my feelings about it, other than to say it provoked the same feelings in me that I feel when I read about the horrors of the holocaust or the

One of those real opinion changing books for me as it charts the brutality in a South American regime and is based on a true story. Not a comfortable read but a real eye-opener. Sobering if you like your tension and horror real. Has stayed with me for over twenty years.

I remember borrowing this book from a friend in 2012/2013. She had read it multiple times and thought of me when she read it the previous time, as I was very intrigued by real crime. I did not know what I was diving into when I picked it up that same afternoon I got it. I was supposed to make dinner, workout, shower and do homework, but ended up not moving from the very same spot on my bed I had sat down on, to just read the first couple of pages before starting my chores. It took me only a

Wow! Paul Riviera really takes you inside the hideous walls of human torture. This book had a resounding, emotional effect on me. There are moments I had to put the book down just so I could better translate the horrors of what I read. Griping, disturbing, sad, and angry are words I would use to describe this book. And to think it takes less then a day to read. I feel compelled to join or help advocate for human rights. Wow!

Great suspense but a little repetitive.
