Description
Llena de ternura y delirio, a caballo entre el realismo suburbano y el cuento de hadas». --Mariana Enríquez «Una inquietante pesadilla al estilo de Pedro Almodóvar, que traza esos terrores liminales que se encuentran más allá de los límites del cuerpo humano, donde ni siquiera la propia carne está a salvo». --Clay McLeod Chapman, autor de Devil Inside y Ghost Eaters Un debut arrollador y catártico sobre los vínculos familiares asfixiantes, escrito desde las tripas y con un humor cotidiano que sorprende. Una novela sugestiva y profundamente libre. Top of FormBottom of Form
Alba tiene una vida normal. Tres hijos, un coche, una hipoteca, un marido que lo intenta. Y una madre y una hermana con las que comparte un amor infinito. Pero hay algo que no funciona. Y es que Alba tiene un miedo terrible a quedarse sola. Para ignorarlo, pasa horas al teléfono con su madre y su hermana. Acosada por ese miedo, tiene los ojos en carne viva. Sabe que algo está a punto de estallar. Hasta que una Nochebuena se queda encerrada en un centro comercial cuando todo el mundo ya se ha ido. Fuera, su madre y su hermana la buscan en vano. Dentro, todo lo que Alba ha intentado enterrar durante tantos años lucha, imparable, por salir a la superficie. Después de esto ya nada será igual. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Full of tenderness and delirium, moving between suburban realism and fairy tale." --Mariana Enríquez "An eldritch Pedro Almodovar nightmare, charting those liminal terrors found beyond the boundaries of the human body, where flesh itself is not safe." --Clay McLeod Chapman, author of Devil Inside and Ghost Eaters An alternative Nightbitch set in Barcelona for fans of Fever Dream, following three mothers who are linked by the tentacles that live inside of them. Alba has always clung to her mother Carmen: to run errands, or simply validate every anxiety she's had. Yet, nothing can silence the fears Alba refuses to confront. They simmer, then burst, but never quite erupt, and each time Carmen is by her side. Meanwhile, Alba's sister Diana struggles herself, balancing the demands of motherhood and work, but cannot remember the last time Carmen tended to her. Two days before Christmas, Alba drags Carmen to the mall. There, she runs into "the widows." The pair approach Alba, put an evil eye on her. Her nose starts to bleed, which is how Alba knows. Then, on Christmas Eve, Alba disappears. And Diana and Carmen collapse from the pain in their bellies, where a deep gash splits their purging stomachs. As the tensions the three women have long held in explode, they're finally forced to confront the terror that connects them. Haunting, cinematic, and strikingly visceral, Don't Leave Her Alone is an incisive exploration of motherhood through a surreal "awakening" that interrogates women's struggle for autonomy and identity, and ultimately forces the question: what does it take to finally be able to break free?
