Dedalus Kitap Loft / Fernanda Trias / / 9786255658333

The world is turning into a shrinking space for clara: this house, these decaying walls, the cramped breath given by that enclosed area at the top. while the outside is threatening and uncertain, the line between reality and imagination is blurring; inside, fears and instincts are gaining power. with the arrival of flor, the baby who once had a small spark of hope, clara's mind is closing in even more; relationships with neighbors are shifting from trust to paranoia, and everything, like the stones of the house, is slowly starting to collapse. this short but intense novel breathlessly experiences the relentless struggle of a person in a world with narrowed borders with the feeling of freedom, fear, violence, and loss. fernanda trías, in her sparse but uncompromising language in the attic, forces the reader to watch clara's anxious steps - as if we are trapped in that house.
