Aura

The core of Aura lies in it second person narrative style. Fuentes uses this to entrap the reader in the story and have the reader become another person; much like how Consuelo entraps Felipe in in the story within the memoirs of her husband. This second person narrative style however seems to be a cheap gimmick that covers up Fuentes' lack for any strong character development or interesting elements besides in being an exercise in the in the writings of the supernatural.
