oker Prize 2022

Ahora una película en Netflix.

Autora galardonada con el Premio Pepe Carvalho de Novela Negra 2019

Enigma policial y conflicto íntimo se unen en esta novela de la autora de Las viudas de los jueves.

Poco después de que Rita aparezca muerta en la iglesia que suele frecuentar, la investigación se da por cerrada y su madre es la única que no renuncia a esclarecer el crimen. Pero asediada por la enfermedad, ella es también la menos indicada para encabezar la búsqueda del asesino. Un penoso viaje de los suburbios a la Capital y una conversación reveladora guían la trama de esta novela íntima y crítica donde el cuerpo femenino es el verdadero protagonista.
Elena sabe desnuda a la vez los secretos de sus personajes y las facetas ocultas del autoritarismo y la hipocresía que pueden determinar el curso de una vida. Un relato que rompe el silencio y se pronuncia en voz alta sobre la libertad de elegir. Fue galardonada con el Premio LiBeraturpreis 2010 a la mejor novela escrita por una mujer.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Shortlisted for the International Booker Prize 2022

Now an adapted film on Netflix.

Claudia Piñeiro, winning author of the Pepe Carvalho de Novela Negra 2019 Prize. A police mystery and internal conflict come together in this novel by the author of Thursday Night Widows.

Soon after Rita's body is found, the investigation into her death is closed. Her mother seems to be the only one unwilling to give up on the truth, but racked by illness she is the least likely candidate to go after a murderer. A difficult trip from the suburbs to the capital, an old debt of gratitude, and a revealing conversation are the facts that are unfolded in this novel. It is an intimate, yet critical novel which holds the female body as its real protagonist as it uncovers secrets, the hidden facets of an authoritarian regime, and society's hypocrisy.

This is a story that breaks through the silence and loudly ratifies the freedom to choose.

In 2010 Piñeiro was awarded the LiBeraturpreis Prize for the best novel written by a woman.
