Reseña del libro "Last day of a Prior Life: A Novel (en Inglés)"

"A ghost story without ghosts that, beyond its formal elegance, explores loneliness, the cycles in which our lives revolve, and the immeasurable challenges of affection."--Mariana Enríquez, author of Our Share of the NightIn this contemporary "ghost story without a ghost," award-winning author Andrés Barba eerily explores how the past can hold us captive, as a woman encounters a compelling unblinking boy in an empty house. While eagerly preparing a house for prospective buyers, a woman finds herself face to face with a strange sight: a seven-year-old boy with an otherworldly stare. Seemingly appearing and disappearing before her again and again, she realizes that the boy wants something from her. Choosing to leave her everyday world behind, the woman steps through the looking glass, inadvertently nurturing a disturbing co-dependence and discovering a suspended time, a loop, and another life in the process.In this "ghost story without ghosts," award-winning author Andrés Barba demonstrates an exquisite talent for dissecting human intimacy, excavating the links between past and present, the objects and spaces we leave behind, and what must not be lost or cannot be forgiven. Richly atmospheric and mesmerizing, Last Day of a Prior Life is a concise, disturbing, and dazzling novel that calls to mind the gothic tales of Shirley Jackson and Henry James.Translated from the Spanish by Lisa Dillman
