Summary

Una novela íntima y crítica donde el cuerpo femenino es el verdadero protagonista.

"Elena metió todo ahí dentro. Todo menos la ropa; la ropa no pudo, conservaba su olor, el olor de su hija. La ropa siempre conserva el olor que tuvo en vida el muerto."

Poco después de que Rita aparece muerta en la iglesia que suele frecuentar, la investigación se da por cerrada, y su madre es la única que no renuncia a esclarecer el crimen. Pero jaqueada por la enfermedad, es también la menos indicada para encabezar la búsqueda del asesino.

Elena sabe desnuda a la vez los secretos de sus personajes y las facetas ocultas del autoritarismo y la hipocresía que pueden determinar el curso de una vida. Un relato que rompe el silencio y se pronuncia en voz alta sobre la libertad de elegir.

«Elena sabe es una historia sobrecogedora, narrada con gran hondura y economía de medios.»
Rosa Montero

Moving, insightful and beautifully constructed.

Me ha encantado Elena Sabe desde el principio. He aprendido mucho por medio del personaje de Elena construido por Claudia Piñeiro. Gracias a la autora y a Mariana de Iraola que ha contado la historia del protagonista de una manera totalmente convincente. Una novela que me ha hecho mucho pensar.
