Book

La bambina nata due volte (2010)

As much as this novel is a family saga, it is also a history of Uruguay from the early 1900s to the present. It depicts three generations of passionate, principled women: herbalist and grandmother Pajarita, poet and mother Eva and anarchist and daughter Salomé. Driven by deep-seated left-wing con...

Die Unsichtbaren Stimmen: Roman (2009)

This haunting novel begins in 1900, when many people in Tacarembo explained things to themselves by means or folk-tales or legends. It is a novel with three protagonists. The first one, Pajarita disappears as a baby and mysteriously reappears in a tree. It is left up to the reader to decide wheth...

La monta (2000)

I bought this book 4 years ago because I had heard it was a beautiful portrait of Uruguay and it's recent history. That is was. But The Invisible Mountain was so much more than that.

De Robertis is a powerful writer who tells her story so well, I couldn't put it down, even though it was very hard to read about the horrors she described in parts of the book. Something about the South American writers I've read (A Hundred Years of S...

The Gods of Tango

On her last morning on board, she dressed with care and latched her trunk tightly so that nothing, no sleeve, no village dust, no errant memory could spill out when the porter came to carry it to the deck. Then she sat in silence for a while. Her bunkmate, Fausta, had left her bedclothes tousled ...

The Invisible Mountain

There was plenty to do. Funds to gather, and weapons, and members; banks and gun clubs to raid for supplies; copper wire to coil into a shape that holds without hurting. Salomé tried on every pair of handcuffs she made. She pulled her wrists against the wires, and if they left red slashes she kep...
