Aprašymas

A fascinating short story collection from Latinx academic and heart transplant survivor

Translated by Luciana Erregue in collaboration with the author, Margarita Saona.

Nothing says post-anthropocentric like Saona's stories. Her characters, resisting gender and other labels inhabit cities that while existing in the real world, refuse to be pinned down on a map. In Saona's stories, animals behave like humans, humans, like animals, or the elements, in a relentless phantasmagoria reminiscent of ancient mythology. This disembodiment is present in Saona's narrative style, having herself hovered between life and death shortly before receiving a life-saving new heart. The Spanish original version of THE GHOST OF YOU, (La ciudad en que no estás) gives these ghosts an English-speaking home, in the hopes they can remain in the memory of their readers the same way someone's presence stills haunts a place.

Fiction. Latinx Studies. Translation.
