Signs Preceding the End of the World is, without a doubt, one of the most unique novels of all those that have been written in Spanish at this turn of the century. Yuri Herrera does not write "simply" about Mexico and the border, but rather creates his Mexico through stories and legends of the past and present. He accurately draws the map of a territory that is even more gigantic, made up of both what is on the earth and in reality and what is under it and belongs to the mythological, to pre-Columbian cultures. The one who travels through this territory through the nine stages of the myths is Makina, a character without parallel in current literature, as real as she seems, despite living in a world that is perhaps the underworld. No reader will be able to escape this fabulous story that shares Marina's trip in search of her brother.
