Description
«Una novela que retrata la vulnerabilidad en torno a las p?rdidas, ausencias y la resiliencia frente a la desgracia que atraviesa el cuerpo. Una obra con un estilo depurado y precisi?n para construir a sus personajes y la intriga que los ata. -Fernanda Melchor, Juli?n Herbert y Ala?de Ventura Jurado del premio Mauricio Achar / Random House 2023
Amor Pr?jimo se manifiesta como el responso por una muerta que no est? muerta, pronunciado por una viva que ardi? por dentro hasta convertirse en tronco. A Teresa y su hermana sus propios padres las aventaron a un orfanato. A la madre de ellas la casaron a los trece a?os con un hombre mayor, la boda fue a las diez de la noche y no hubo testigos. El padre es el pen?ltimo sobreviviente de la ?ltima rama de una estirpe que el tiempo aniquil?. La tenebrosa t?a Amelia, hermana del pap?, a quien las madres Pasionistas le negaron su sue?o de convertirse en esposa de Dios, se hizo monja clandestina. Teresa y su hermana comparten al mismo hombre, al que quisieran amar y que las ame. Pero ?stos no son simples datos anecd?ticos, constituyen los asuntos de redenci?n que la narradora de esta novela ha venido a tratar con su hermana en coma. -Mario Gonz?lez Su?rez
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A novel that portrays the vulnerability of loss, absence, and resilience, in the face of the bodys state of disgrace. A work with a refined style and precision in character building and the creation of an intrigue that binds them. Fernanda Melchor, Juli?n Herbert, and Ala?de Ventura, jury of the Mauricio Achar/Random House Prize 2023
Love for Ones Neighbor manifests itself like a eulogy for a dead woman that didnt die, uttered for a life that burned from within until becoming a log. Teresa and her sister were thrown into an orphanage by their own parents. Their mother was married away to an older man at the age of thirteen; the wedding was at ten at night, no witnesses. Their father is second to last in a long family line that time annihilated. Sinister Aunt Amelia, their fathers sister, whom Passionist mothers denied her the dream of becoming Gods wife, became a clandestine nun. Teresa and her sister share the same man, whom they wish to love and be loved by. But these are not just simple facts; they constitute affairs of redemption that the author of this novel has come to discuss with her comatose sister. Mario Gonz?lez Su?rez
