About the Book

Dispersos o inhallables, estos relatos dan nuevo acceso a la literatura de Selva Almada, conocida por crónicas y novelas varias veces traducidas, elogiadas por la crítica y celebradas por los lectores.


Las siestas y los arroyos, los cardos y las máquinas, los caminos del litoral argentino. El calor. Compañeros, hermanos, abuelas, padres, amantes, amigos. Y, entre todos ellos, los códigos tácitos que revelan el carácter de los vínculos que los unen o los diálogos que los consienten y transforman, pero que sólo una autora de su talento permite que se escuchen cuando se los lee. En El desapego es una manera de querernos, Almada despliega toda la original potencia de su prosa.

"Selva Almada puede seguir hablando desde las esferas de la soledad de los territorios humanos, condenados desde su misma génesis; de la 'muerte' como una cosa 'vacía y oscura'; puede seguir hablándonos desde los márgenes, con esa violenta claridad de su lenguaje."

Luis Guillermo Ibarra, La Jornada, México

"Es literatura de provincia, como la de Carson McCullers, por ejemplo. Regional frente a las culturas globales, pero no costumbrista. Justo al revés de mucha literatura urbana, que es costumbrista sin ser regional."

Beatriz Sarlo, Perfil, Argentina

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"After Faullener, Rulfo, Carson McCullers, Selva Almada can keep speaking from the spheres of solitude; she can keep speaking to us rom the margins, with that violent clarity of her language." -La Jornada

Unfocused or undiscoverable, these tales give new access to the literature of Selva Almada, known for chronicles and novels translated many times over, lauded by critics and celebrated by readers.

Naps and streams, thistles and machines, the roads of the Argentinean coast. Heat. Companions, siblings, grandmothers, parents, lovers, friends. And among all of them, the tacit codes that reveal the character of the links that unite us or the dialogues that permit them and transform them, but that only an author of her talent allows them to be heard when they are read. In Detachment Is a Form of Loving Oneself, Almada reveals all of the original power of her prose.
