He lived most of his life in Chile, although he spent many years in self-imposed exile in Mexico, the United States and Spain.

Publishers Weekly called Still Alive a “fresh and vivid debut.” This heady exploration of love and disillusionment in the contemporary age follows the misadventures of V as she contends with love, family dysfunction, and the “crummy job market of the aughts” in “aching prose.” Jason Christian, for Full Stop, said: “I keep thinking of Still Alive as a queer Fight Club (1996) for the millennial generation…If Fight Club touted moralistic dogma and material deprivation as a path to liberation, Still Alive laughs in the face of such naïve confidence in easy solutions.”
