Críticas:
"Masterfully blends the commonplace with the fantastic, achieving the essence and vitality inherent in the best examples of this literary genre." --Selection Panel, Premio Nacional de Literatura "There's an especially lovely story of that last, skeptical kind in Cristina Fernandez Cubas's remarkable collection . . . In these six elegant stories she's most interested in the ambiguities and periodic disturbances that plague the imagination, and reports on them with the appropriate sense of awe, even of dread." --New York Times "Cubas stories create one of the most extraordinary universes in contemporary literature, where the commonplace and the unexpected, normality and the unexplainable intertwine to offer a singular vision of human experience." --abc "There is mystery almost from the first sentence of every story. Each detail shatters our inertia and forces us to reappraise a shifting panorama." --El Pais
Reseña del editor:
An award-winning collection of six uncanny and atonal stories from one of Europe's most celebrated contemporary writers of short fiction.A young girl who is envious of the attention given to her sister has a brutal awakening. A young woman, facing eviction, puts her trust in an old lady who invites her into her home. A mature woman spends the night in a hotel in Madrid and falls into a time warp ...Cristina Fernandez Cubas takes us through a dark looking-glass into a world where things are never quite what they seem. Lurking in each of these six chilling and suspenseful short stories is a very unpleasant surprise. Nona's Room is the latest offering from one of Spain's finest contemporary writers.
