“…Las limitaciones, oscuridades y aun horrores del proceso nacen de la limitación o la resistencia creatural; jamás de un «silencio» u «ocultamiento» por parte de Dios. …”

“…Esta textura reiterativa y exageradamente desenfadada "sirve como envoltura -confiesa el autor- de una "frialdad" fundamental, del desarrollo "maquinal" de una línea de pensamiento que sigue su curso con pcompleta "indiferencia" hacia la patología de las llamadas consideraciones humanas", y opera como una suerte de instrumento de control de la exacerbada pasión crítica que suscita la visión implacable del horror…”

“…Figueroa's text is of a deeply hybrid nature, characterized by a perpetual oscillation between Italian inspiration, decameronian accents, transtextual borrowings and Hispanic folklore substratum.
