by Gabriela Enríquez (Author)

«Una novela que retrata la vulnerabilidad en torno a las pérdidas, ausencias y la resiliencia frente a la desgracia que atraviesa el cuerpo. Una obra con un estilo depurado y precisión para construir a sus personajes y la intriga que los ata. -Fernanda Melchor, Julián Herbert y Alaíde Ventura Jurado del premio Mauricio Achar / Random House 2023

Amor Prójimo se manifiesta como el responso por una muerta que no está muerta, pronunciado por una viva que ardió por dentro hasta convertirse en tronco. A Teresa y su hermana sus propios padres las aventaron a un orfanato. A la madre de ellas la casaron a los trece años con un hombre mayor, la boda fue a las diez de la noche y no hubo testigos. El padre es el penúltimo sobreviviente de la última rama de una estirpe que el tiempo aniquiló. La tenebrosa tía Amelia, hermana del papá, a quien las madres Pasionistas le negaron su sueño de convertirse en esposa de Dios, se hizo monja clandestina. Teresa y su hermana comparten al mismo hombre, al que quisieran amar y que las ame. Pero éstos no son simples datos anecdóticos, constituyen los asuntos de redención que la narradora de esta novela ha venido a tratar con su hermana en coma. -Mario González Suárez

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"A novel that portrays the vulnerability of loss, absence, and resilience, in the face of the body's state of disgrace. A work with a refined style and precision in character building and the creation of an intrigue that binds them." --Fernanda Melchor, Julián Herbert, and Alaíde Ventura, jury of the Mauricio Achar/Random House Prize 2023

Love for One's Neighbor manifests itself like a eulogy for a dead woman that didn't die, uttered for a life that burned from within until becoming a log. Teresa and her sister were thrown into an orphanage by their own parents. Their mother was married away to an older man at the age of thirteen; the wedding was at ten at night, no witnesses. Their father is second to last in a long family line that time annihilated. Sinister Aunt Amelia, their father's sister, whom Passionist mothers denied her the dream of becoming God's wife, became a clandestine nun. Teresa and her sister share the same man, whom they wish to love and be loved by. But these are not just simple facts; they constitute affairs of redemption that the author of this novel has come to discuss with her comatose sister. --Mario González Suárez
