Bait

von Eugenia Ladra

Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Paso Chico is hot, humid and claustrophobic; a fishermen's town full of street dogs and dusty roads where nothing ever happens. Until the summer of Marga's thirteenth birthday, when she meets Recio.He appears like an apparition, disrupting the silence of summer siestas and revealing the strange, twisted dynamics of the town's inhabitants. As cargo ships wait on the viscous river, a sea of mud and secrets is unleashed, love and violence living side by side in this small rural town in Uruguay.Haunting and wry, Ladra's debut joins the ranks of similarly elemental novels such as Hurricane Season by Fernanda Melchor, Fever Dream by Samanta Schweblin and The Bitch by Pilar Quintana.
