May is book's month in Uruguay, May 26th being National Book's Day. I promised to release my books freely in a #FediverseEdition proposal.
I expected to do that in their original language (Spanish).
Translation is a full time professional job which I am not prepared to do. However, some LLM helped me improve a bit my amateur translation attempt of my opera prima The Hungarian Soprano.

The main story is a nonlinear chronology which mirrors the dissonant harmonies of La Traviata.
Its structure forces the reader to become the investigator, piecing together a conspiracy the text refuses to spell out.

It is a historical fiction work covering espionage, arms traffic, government cover-ups spanning South America and Europe during the Yugoslavian wars.

The prose’s clinical tone (dates, decrees, serial numbers) sharpens the horror, making The hungarian soprano's death feel not like fiction, but like history’s darkest aria.

Six more parts await inside covering #fanaticism, #prejudice, #mystery, #psychedelia, #travel, #alcoholism, #friendship, #africa, #trans, #MedecinsSansFrontieres, #southamerica, #Brazil, #tarot and more.

Hope you enjoy it. If you feel like #commenting, #sharing or #rating it, thanks in advance.

@Zerofactorial oh wow, you're right! #Monsterdon #BechdelPass

that's another first scene #BechdelPass, two women talking about space and a devil girl #monsterdon

have we ever had a first-line #BechdelPass before? and like continued significant women leads? #monsterdon

immediate #bechdelPass in the first lines of dialogue #monsterdon

strong #bechdelPass though #monsterdon

@Zerofactorial #monsterdon #BechdelPass

In any case i think we have a #BechdelPass "In spirit" since the women are active agents of the plot, and i'm sure we'll get a technical pass eventually, but still... #monsterdon

So I haven't been keeping close track but i am actually not sure we have a #BechdelPass yet - carriage conversation was concerned with men, arrival supper was about how their uncle would react to their clothes, that conversation was just about the uncle too.... #monsterdon

This movie has the highest a priori #BechdelPass potential of any movie #monsterdon has ever watched. Lets see how they fuck it up by making every conversation between named women characters about a man

@lytta ALSO DOES IT COUNT as a #BechdelPass to have a spiritual connection at a distance through a stone that is about the fate of humanity that materially affects the plot between two women even if one of them is a kaiju #monsterdon

Yo, the #YouTube channel #EnhancedCinema has #Pulgasari 4K, with English captions. I think I have time to watch it before I have to shower & such!

Update - 5 minutes into the film
I've taken shits more 4K than this film. We've met the main 3 characters: Old Blacksmith, Blacksmith Daughter, Blacksmith Apprentice/Bandit Leader.

I don't think we're getting a #BechdelPass here, I suspect she's only gal in the film.

Update - 9 min.
The full village up the road has more gals; bet it still fails.

@lytta that was it lmao we have a #BechdelPass #monsterdon

DID WE JUST GET THE FIRST #BechdelPass IN MONTHS IN THIS FUCKING MOVIE #monsterdon

Oh please i hope that woman wasn't our only opportunity for a #BechdelPass in this movie #monsterdon #mastoween
