Synopsis "Desastres íntimos (in Spanish)"

«Su literatura es un ejercicio constante de eploración y crítica, sin rehuir el valor de la palabra como epresión de un compromiso con temas claves de la conversación contemporánea como la condición de la mujer y la seualidad». Acta del Jurado del Premio Cervantes de 2021 Este libro se asoma al fascinante mundo interior de una serie de personajes atrapados en sus particulares delirios. Historias que recogen, con la dosis justa de ironía, la inquietante desazón que asalta a quienes se sienten vivos cuando se enfrentan a la realidad. Con una prosa deliciosa y sensual, Cristina Peri Rossi vuelve una y otra vez a embriagarnos con su energía. Estos breves e inquietantes cuentos reflejan esos desajustes que nos rodean, esos desastres íntimos que nos definen como seres humanos.
