by Paulette Jonguitud (Author)

«Ante la impotencia y el dolor, Paulette Jonguitud nos recuerda que podemos contar con certezas potentes: que las redes de cuidado y ternura amortiguan las cat?strofes, que la imaginaci?n, el arte y el juego nos salvan de la desesperanza.Y que, por supuesto, los perros no son de este mundo. --Gabriela Dami?n Miravete

El mundo desplazado
es una novela polif?nica dones donde se tejen las vidas de cuatro mujeres: Paula, Miranda, Agustina e In?s. Agustina, que lucha contra un trastorno de ansiedad no diagnosticado, se embarca en un viaje emocional al mudarse con sus hijos a la casa familiar, Cubilete 189, donde reside su turbulento pasado ligado ineludiblemente a su madre, Paula. La mudanza desencadena eventos inesperados llevando a Agustina al borde de la psicosis mientras intenta proteger a sus hijos de un entorno hostil. Mientras tanto, In?s, la hija de Agustina, encuentra consuelo en su conexi?n con las m?quinas creadas por la enigm?tica artista pl?stica Miranda, que aparecen en los alrededores de Cubilete 189 y se van recen extendiendo por la ciudad. A medida que la relaci?n entre In?s y las m?quinas se profundiza, la l?nea entre la realidad y la fantas?a se desdibuja.

En esta novela, Paulette Jonguitud plasma una extraordinaria historia cercana al horror y a la fantas?a intimista, que la coloca como una de las voces m?s aut?nticas de las letras mexicanas.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"Paulette Jonguitud reminds us that when we feel at our most impotent and powerless, there are certain powerful truths we can count on: support and care networks that can soften the blow of tragedy; the ability of imagination, art and playfulness to save us from despair; and, of course, the knowledge that dogs are not of this world." --Gabriela Dami?n Miravete

A Displaced World is a polyphonic novel about the interconnected lives of four women: Paula, Miranda, Agustina and In?s. Agustina, struggling with an undiagnosed anxiety disorder, embarks on an emotional odyssey when she and her children move into the family home, Cubilete 189. The house triggers memories of her turbulent past, linked indelibly to her mother, Paula. An unexpected chain of events follows, taking Agustina to the brink of psychosis as she tries to protect her children from a hostile environment. In?s, Agustina's daughter, finds an outlet in her connection with the machines created by Miranda, an enigmatic sculptor whose works appear in the neighborhood and start spreading through the city. As In?s's relationship with the machines deepens, the line between reality and fantasy grows increasingly blurred.

Paulette Jonguitud crafts an extraordinary tale somewhere between horror and fantasy that earns her a place among the most authentic voices in Mexican literature.
