Sara Mesa's latest novel LA FAMILIA—the compelling X-ray of a family's dormant wounds, vulnerabilities, contradictions, and weaknesses—is out now with @anagramaeditor! 🎉 “There are no secrets in this family!” proclaims Damián, the father, at the start of this book. He is a man with fixed ideas and ideals who is obsessed with righteousness and pedagogy. But in reality, his house with no secrets is full of cracks, and the oppression that breathes within its walls will end up creating escape routes, clandestine codes, cover ups, pretenses, and lies. Made up by two girls, two boys, a mother, and a father, this family that appears to be normal—working class, full of good intentions—is the protagonist of a choral novel that spans several decades, whose stories are full of the desire for freedom and criticism for the pillars that have historically held up the institution of family, and that in large part still do hold it up: authoritarianism and obedience, shame and silence. Sara Mesa once again proves that she has a clinical eye when it comes to undressing human behavior, detecting latent wounds, and portraying the contradictions and weaknesses that make us up in all their complexity and fragility. This book is another twist in the screw of one of the most powerful literary universes in contemporary Spanish literature, and the confirmation of a talent that is continuously growing.
