Armenteros' richly imagistic The Spiral of Words is a writer's odyssey, is a book with the blood of Borges in its wanderers' rivers, is a book with worlds of myth and magical realism hovering. It seeks beginnings, invokes the inner-driven walker, ravenous for words, invokes the collective shadow, the collective lost, the collective seeker, the oceans, the wind...all chasing miracles of chance. And a reeking stalker in a striped tunic, a soul of longing and confession ... is existentially near. The unknown pulls the reader like a determined undertow. The Spiral of Words is a truly brave literary accomplishment.
Margo Berdeshevsky, author of Beautiful Soon Enough and Before the Drought
