A psychological fictional novel, which recreates Ludovico, a character who narrates in monologues his vision of the world despite having mental limitations due to a hereditary condition of mental damage. Ludovico is a novel with which William Castaño-Bedoya surprises us, reaffirming his talents as a recreator of human depth.
Ludovico demonstrates the great impact of frustration and its generalities, and how impotence and fate recreate the absurd and the uncertain. William manages to stage the impact of the arrival of beings with differences to the spectrum of normality that is commonly known. Ludovico would not have been possible if the author had not studied similar characters for many years before undertaking the work of his novel.At first, the reader may think that Ludovico is a character who intends to show us his limited and boring world, but as the story progresses, we discover a primary and elementary orb that does not lack its interpretations, its feelings, its compassion, and its passions. However, the reader faces the great and painful paradox of this novel, which Ludovico suffers and tells unconsciously. The drama of his life, restricted by his poor comprehension, his disobedient vision, and his clumsy ear, condemns him to a fractional understanding that he tries to fill with his fantasy. The story of the one who carries within him an unopened irony and whose simplicity leads us unexpectedly to the borders of laughter and crying.
