Dulce enemiga mía (Spanish Edition)

"Marcela Serrano vuelve a demostrar su talento para penetrar el alma y la psicología femeninas con un grupo de veinte relatos protagonizados por mujeres frágiles, poderosas, aventureras o temerosas, amas de casa o intelectuales, jóvenes o maduras, cuyas voces e historias se graban a fuego en la memoria. Desde las calles de los Balcanes hasta Santiago de Chile pasando por La Mancha, hay hilos capaces de unir el mundo interior de las mujeres: a veces serán la fuerza de la risa, el valor de la amistad, el amor o el sexo; otras, los miedos ante un matrimonio vacío, la hipocresía, la soledad o el temor al abandono."

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION: "In Dulce enemiga mía, Marcela Serrano once again showcases her unique talent for penetrating the female soul and psychology. This group of twenty short stories features a host of women young and old, fragile and powerful, adventurous and timid, housewives and intellectuals. From the Balkans to Chile, common threads unite them: laughter, friendship, love, sex, fear, hypocrisy, loneliness and abandonment. «It isn t change what really hurts, its the resistance to it. And she felt illuminated, like a Tibetan monk who finds harmony in the act of flowing.» «With every breath she hated him. Without compassion, until eternity. Moral indignation is futile, she said to herself, and repeated, it's a useless luxury. The only thing that works is to not let oneself be beaten. She did not realize how her gaze hardened, she did not recall how the lack of pleasure can dull people.»"
