La vida privada de los áboles, Alejandro Zambra (Chile)
El matrimonio de los peces rojos, Guadalupe Nettel (Mexico)
$49.99
Veronica is late, Veronica is inexplicably late, and the book goes on until she comes back or until Julián is sure she won’t come back. Towards the end, Julián wants to write and not be written, but to wait is to allow himself to be written: to wait is to follow a constant drift of images. So, the story begins long before that last night, maybe one afternoon in 1984, with the scene of a child watching television. Why read and write books in a world about to break? This question haunts every page of The Private Life of Trees, a novel that confirms Alejandro Zambra as one of the most interesting writers of the new generations.
Guadalupe Nettel’s collection of short stories explore the relationship between animals and humans. Over the course of five stories the animals become reflections of human behavior as they interact with her characters at the edge of their preoccupations.
