About this book

Los nueve cuentos que integran este brillante debut literario son únicos en su especie, como cada una de sus protagonistas: niñas, adolescentes y jóvenes –terribles, entrañables– que aceptan la transformación y lo monstruoso con la misma alegre naturalidad con que experimentan el amor, la soledad, la maternidad o el deseo. En El gran despertar, Julia Armfield practica con sensibilidad y maestría un realismo fantástico que juega con los géneros explorando los cuerpos que habitan sus mujeres. Motivos clásicos del terror, la ciencia ficción, el fantasy y la mitología se funden con el feminismo y la cotidianidad para dar lugar a algo enteramente nuevo."¿Qué vuelve tan emocionante esta colección? Es el modo en que combina el sustrato sabroso y nada sentimental de la mitología con una observación clínica de lo contemporáneo. Es el hecho de que Armfield, a pesar de toda la ternura que siente por sus personajes, nunca las hace pedir disculpas; es una escritora fantástica tanto como realista. Es la forma en que cada párrafo encuentra un equilibrio perfecto entre lo visceral y lo impasible."M. John Harrison"El gran despertar es ejemplar: un gótico distinto y nuevo, melancólico, potente y elegante."China Miéville"Leer esta colección de relatos es lo único que tienes que hacer. El talento de Armfield es enorme y devastador."Daisy Johnson
