by Nancy Huston

Language: Spanish

MARDULCE editora (Argentina) 2023

Nancy Huston is one of the most outstanding contemporary French-language writers, strangely enough, who has never been translated in Spanish until now. It was time to remedy this omission. And Bad Girl is proof of her talent. With autobiographical overtones, the novel is the narration of a childhood – which begins in the mother’s womb – in which her father abandons her mother, with three children. But despite everything, there is joy, enthusiasm and also immense moments of reflection and doubt in that childhood. Are we telling too much of the story? It doesn’t matter. Because the key to Huston is her writing, her style, made of a precise and dramatic tone at the same time, marked by her commitment to feminism and her vast readings, from Virginia Woolf to Beckett, passing through Anaïs Nin, which lead to a moving novel about the territory of the intimate.
