Ustedes brillan en lo oscuro

Liliana Colanzi's stories masterfully explore various ways of narrating time, such as a geological journey in a cave, the search for the historical roots of rubber exploitation in the ruins of an Amazonian town, or the dislocated temporality of a religious colony in the one in which its characters yearn to get rid of the prohibitions that strand them in the past. In this book, radiation is an invisible agent that affects young people who live near an Andean nuclear power plant and scrap collectors in a Brazilian city. You shine in the dark, a book awarded the Ribera del Duero Prize, creates rarefied spaces with an enigmatic and sensory writing.
