Nacido de ninguna mujer

Nacido de ninguna mujer

Bouysse, Franck

A priest recalls an event that happened forty-four years ago that changed his life: he was asked to go to a mental hospital to bless the corpse of an inmate and someone warned him that, among the clothes of the deceased, he would find a manuscript. It tells the story of the teenage daughter of a poor peasant family, whose father sells her as a servant to a man who lives in a castle with his mother, his wife, who never leaves her room, and a stable boy. The man is obsessed with having an heir that his wife cannot give him, and the young woman has been taken to the castle for that purpose... The manuscript unravels that atrocious story, with episodes of extreme violence and cruelty. But questions remain to be answered: what was the fate of the child conceived in such terrible circumstances? How did the young woman end up in the asylum? What is related in those papers, did it happen as it is told? Are there still hidden secrets?
