"Review agency" is the story of a young man named Juan looking for letters of job review for authoritarian government. He is very good - he is so amazing as to look up his letter and let himself be executed. In this story, Valenzuela used a stupid situation to try to get tired of the serious situation of her home country Argentina in the late 1970s; she did this with a foolish sentence style and an omniscient narrator .

Sarcastic in the situation: Juan opposed the review, but he became an examiner, Juan reviewed his letter. This is ironic, but the original intention as an examiner was to avoid reviewing his own letter, there was no motivation to check Juan as an inspector. Despite his initial motive, his work was "very good" as he was braintrated by censorship rules. Because they can plant them and bring them to their side, the company does not care who is hired. Juan is reviewing the letter due to a simple and innocent phrase (like the weather). He is delusive as he is too difficult to brainwash. Juan and his company think he is doing well as an examiner, but the reader knows that he is actually giving bad results because he is considering an innocent letter .

Climax: The climax of The Censors is a strange climax. It appears at the end of the short story and we believe that he finally can complete his mission as Juan finally received his own letter.

We only know that he sent a letter he regrets now, so he tried to stop his letter. To the system.
