Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"One of the great classics of contemporary European literature" (Carlos Ruiz Zafon author of The Shadow of the Wind)

"A story that Carmen Laforet narrates in prose both exalted and icy, in which what is unspoken is more important than what is said, keeping the reader of the novel submerged in indescribable anguish from beginning to end" (Mario Vargas Llosa)

"Laforet's voice is calm and clear...this remarkably sophisticated novel ...is unlike most Spanish literature of the time and before" (Michael Eaude Independent)

"A welcome rediscovery and a fascinating danse macabre" (Daily Mail)

"Laforet develops her narrative in a series of cataclysmic, operatic confrontations, in which no holds are barred. The language...is poetic, melodramatic, hyperbolic. Yet it never feels forced or ersatz... Nada is Zola-esque...what particularly impresses is the haunted atmosphere, the intensity of the paranoia and the unpredictability, and the Cinderella-eyed sensibility of it's heroine... A gothic horror story which deserves the widest possible readership" (Alan Taylor Sunday Herald)

Reseña del editor:

Set in war-torn, brutalised Barcelona, this novel is about Andrea, who comes to the city to study literature at the university. She makes her way to the home of relatives.
