Notes

Description
"'¿Pesara más un edificio sobre mi cuerpo... o una muerte sobre mi conciencia?' ¡Esta temblando! Un romance a escondidas. Un departamento en la colonia Roma. Los objetos se desploman, las paredes se agrietan. '¿Moriremos?' La escala de Richter es alta y la fatalidad, tambien. Gritos. El pavor crece y se quiebra; de las fisuras manan los recuerdos de ella que, aterrorizada, espera la caida. Como destellos de vida, se dispara el recuento final de una historia hecha de tantas otras. Se desprenden los mosaicos de sus vivencias, amorios, viajes, infancia feliz... o remendada? Matrimonios, divorcios, una hija sabia, genial y entrafiable. Existen los recuerdos o son visiones desesperadas de un aqui que se derrumba? El pecado de omisión y la culpa taladran la memoria de esta enamoradiza agnóstica, mientras crujen las entrafias de la tierra. El desafio que tiene por delante consistira en contarlo todo a riesgo de que solo las piedras y el polvo la escuchen. En esta intima y emotiva novela, Beatriz Rivas compone un collage de confesiones, pensamientos, desahogos, manias, banalidades y fantasmas que se entrelazan entre hondos cuestionamientos. Un rompecabezas para los voyeuristas del alma donde se unen placeres y heridas; un caleidoscopio de voces que gira concéntrico y revelador. Loque no he dicho es una expiación a la velocidad del miedo..." -- Back cover
Description
" 'Would a building weigh more on my body versus a death on my conscience?' What trembling! A secret romance. An apartment in the Roma neighborhood. Objects collapse, walls crack. 'We will die?' The Richter scale is high and so is fatality. Screams. Dread grows and breaks; from her fissures spring the memories of her that terrifying fall that awaits her. Like flashes of life, she shoots off the final retelling of a story made up of so many others. The mosaics of her experiences, affairs, travels, happy childhood ... or something mended? Marriages, divorces, a wise, brilliant and endearing daughter. Are there memories or are they desperate visions of collapse? The sin of omission and guilt pierce the memory of this agnostic crush, while the bowels of the earth creak. The challenge that she has before her will consist of telling everything at the risk that only the stones and the dust will hear her. In this intimate and emotional novel, Beatriz Rivas composes a collage of confessions, thoughts, outbursts, manias, banalities and ghosts that are intertwined between deep questions. A puzzle for voyeurists of the soul where good times and hurts come together; a kaleidoscope of voices that turns concentric and revealing. What I have not said is an expiation at the speed of fear ..." --,Cataloger's translation and interpretation of the synopsis on the cover
