Sara Rosenberg returns to the literary scene with a novel flexible, entertaining and full of questions, published by Siruela . A punishment can notice the blurred silhouettes of characters at the beginning of the novel, which - slowly - taking shape through their misery. Griselda alcoholic actress, does not accept the mediocrity of a stable life. Interprets each of their roles as if they were living the same life and prey to their fears, which regularly goes through massive intake of alcohol. "To know that at some point in life, any link is useless. And that enthusiasm and desire are diseases of the soul, the worst, the most harmful ". The dichotomy, the struggle of every day with her husband, Jerome, keeps it alive, alert. The latter's death shatters his reality, which is overcome by the tragedy. It is here where the story picks up momentum, interest and questions, doubts the reader he has needed another chapter. After the profiles are evident in 'Backlight' hide dastardly characters. Crime, madness, betrayal, between two nations are sick of corruption: Argentina and Spain.
Style
is a novel punctuated in small chapters that are oxygenating and easy reading. Of course, sometimes this can result in loss of narrative power in some sections of the book. In my opinion the book achieves a good dose of quality and finesse narrative when he describes the dream world-ethyl in which Griselda is often submerged. A highly recommended book, full of contrasts and irony, as Griselda living in a passage from the play in which strange Argentina: "Yes, we are rich, a fortune n ghosts, and an enviable necrophiliac culture. Mummies general and bloody heroes morning [...] and Buenos Aires is full of glass dimmed by the breath of the impending catastrophe. Looks new, but is the same, and the whole circus tamer dance around the most stubborn - he said and stood up. "
