Der Sommer Ohne Männer (2011) - Plot & Excerpts

Novela difícil de catalogar está de Siri Hustvedt. Partiendo de la crisis nerviosa de Mia, una mujer madura, poeta y profesora de literatura tras ser abandonada por su esposo, la autora nos brinda una excelente metáfora sobre el paso del tempo desde el punto de vista de las mujeres. Lejos de ser considerada una novela feminista o novela para mujeres, cabría denominarla como obra de mujeres por la casi inexistente presencia de hombres. Such is life."A Pause" in life comes in all forms. For Mia in the novel, it's a French Mistress.What the Pause is isn't important, it was never important in the first place.But it's a catalysis that brings surprises into our lives.How fortunate it is for Mia to be able to afford a getaway after her emotional breakdown.It is a luxury that a lot of people cannot afford. To have the support of her mother, her sister, her daughter.To have the qualification to run a summer poetry workshop that helps to pay for her accommodation.To have the time, space and support for her to contemplate and heal.As we try to untangle and make sense of our own struggles,There are those who walk in front of us, like the Five Swans, and Those who walk behind us, like the seven witches.Loss, a known absence.Lost and found, well, let him come to me.
