La azotea
Fernanda Trías
NOVEL | 2018 | 140 pages
“The world is this house,” says Clara. The keys have been tossed, the windows covered up with blankets. Inside, Clara is barricaded with her father, her daughter Flor, and a caged canary, with their rooftop as the last sliver of freedom. A prisoner of her past and her fears, trapped in an emotional delirium, she is convinced that the outside world is the fierce threat she must protect her family from. The grueling battle against it that she embarks on will be a confrontation with her own internal abyss.
The Rooftop is a claustrophobic novel about freedom, and also about fear, violence, motherhood and loss.
