Beschreibung:
Diamela Eltit is a visiting professor at New York University and a cofounder of the prestigious Chilean artist collective CADA, which was formed during, and in opposition to, the Pinochet dictatorship. She is the author of Lumpérica, Mano de obra, Por la patria, Los trabajadores de la muerte, and Los vigilantes. She lives in New York City.
Combining the political intrigue of a dictatorship with the development and failure of a passionate love, this novel imparts a vision of contemporary women that transcends borders and language. The narrator and her partner examine the futility of their affair and the death of their son against the backdrop of the defeated Left-wing revolutionary plan. The author presents high-voltage emotional situations in a subtle, seductive way and discusses women's roles throughout the book. The novel also deals with what it means to prepare for old age and death in the 21st century.
