520			_aMuchos ven en Olympia Binewski un monstruo: es enana, albina, jorobada. Sin embargo, nada hay menos monstruoso que amar. Y Olympia ama a Al y Lil, porque diseñaron cada una de sus malformaciones. Ama a Chick, su hermano pequeño, por su bondad infinita y su ingenuidad sin mácula. Ama a Elly y a Iphy, las siamesas, las más bellas y virtuosas pianistas. Ama a Arturo, el chico que nació con aletas allí donde debiera tener extremidades, más que a nadie en este mundo. Ama a Miranda, pese a que ésta no sabe que salió de su vientre. Tanto la ama que la seguirá allá donde vaya para que nada le falte. Ama a la señora Lick aunque sabe que no debe, pese a que esta invierte su fortuna en corregir a los monstruos como ella. Los ama tanto que haría lo que fuese por protegerlos. Y a aquellos que la llaman monstruo, que la saltan con la mirada o le disparan atrincherados en aparcamientos, a esos también podría aprender a amarlos. Un libro lleno de amor aunque terrorífico, que sacudió el panorama literario y se erigió novela de culto. La favorita de Kurt Cobain, Tim Burton y Douglas Coupland.
520			_aMany see Olympia Binewski as a monster: she is a dwarf, albino, and hunchbacked. However, nothing is less monstrous than love. And Olympia loves Al and Lil because they designed each of her deformities. She loves Chick, her little brother, for his infinite kindness and flawless innocence. She loves Elly and Iphy, the Siamese twins, the most beautiful and virtuous pianists. She loves Arturo, the boy who was born with fins instead of limbs, more than anyone else in this world. She loves Miranda, even though she doesn't know she came from her womb. She loves her so much that she will follow her wherever she goes to make sure she lacks nothing. She loves Miss Lick even though she knows she shouldn't, despite the fact that she spends her fortune trying to "fix" monsters like her. She loves them so much that she would do anything to protect them. And those who call her a monster, who avoid her gaze or shoot at her from parking lot barricades, she could learn to love them too. A book full of love yet terrifying, it shook the literary landscape and became a cult novel. The favorite of Kurt Cobain, Tim Burton, and Douglas Coupland.
