La vida por delante by Magalí Etchebarne
Language: Spanish

A group of women who resist the sordidness of old age and illness; two friends on holiday in an imposing landscape, where darkness and the past lurk like a ferocious animal; two sisters who delay parting with their mother's ashes in the sea; a couple who live installed in the electricity of permanent conflict. With eyes and ears attentive to the terrible, but also to the beautiful, Magalí Etchebarne's stories, full of mastery, intelligence and humour, delve into the lives of characters in constant battle with the cruelty of intimacy. Four universes in which tragedy and comedy dance entangled and which portray with skill and irony the harshness of the passage of time, pain in all its forms, and the tireless search for love and illusion.
