Her works have received favorable criticism from other writers, such as the Mexican Carlos Fuentes, who rated La ingratitud, El dock, and El desperdicio as particularly notable, [3] and Beatriz Sarlo, who wrote about La ingratitud: "It's a text notable for its intelligence, for the steadfast security of writing without hesitation, and for the ability to exhibit a drama of feelings with the same distance as observing a foreign city."
