«Testimonio de transformación, disección íntima, búsqueda de conocimiento, Inacabada nos abre al amor y al más
absoluto deseo de comprensión . Giuseppe Caputo

«Quizá la experiencia trans sea inseparable de los rituales de los muertos. Velar el cuerpo quebrado, abrazarlo y cuidarlo en su tránsito , piensa una hija que anhela poner fin al silencio que se ha instalado entre ella y su madre a propósito de su tránsito de género. En el discurrir necesita nombrar esas dos palabras --soy mujer-- que definen un renacer y a la vez un duelo por quien ha sido durante treinta y siete años. Pero concluye en algún momento la experiencia de transitar?

Repleta de reflexiones de gran calado, Inacabada es una novela que busca en el intersticio de los géneros literarios un lenguaje para habitar las distancias y detener la tristeza de una identidad no dicha, al tiempo que observa con precisión e inteligencia la posibilidad de liberar cargas familiares para volver a la vida.

«La gran novela trans. [...] Se ha convertido en un fenómeno literario en Chile [...]. Inacabada es, como la sinfonía de Schubert, perfecta en su entramado conciso y fugaz, en su agudeza psicológica y en la emocionante conformación de este doble retrato femenino. [...] No solo es una de las novelas más brillantes que he leído en los últimos años, sino una obra de arte muy necesaria en nuestro tiempo . Jorge Volpi, El País

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"A testimonial of transformation, a personal dissection, a quest for understanding: Unfinished opens us to love and the deepest desire for comprehension."-Giuseppe Caputo

"Maybe the trans experience is inseparable from the rituals of death. Holding a vigil for the broken body, embracing it and caring for it in its passage," wonders a daughter who yearns to end the silence that reigns between her and her mother on the topic of her sex change. Her thoughts circle back to two words - I am a woman - that imply both a rebirth and mourning for the person she has been for thirty-seven years. But does the transition ever end?

Full of profound reflections, Unfinished is a novel that explores the interstices between literary genres to find a language for bridging distances and soothing the grief of an unspoken identity, even as it offers an intelligent appraisal of the potential to throw off family burdens and start living again.

"Unfinished is like a Schubert symphony, perfect in its concise and fleeting structure, psychological insights and a moving double portrait of what it means to be a woman [...] it is not only one of the most brilliant novels I've read in recent years, but also a work of art that is much needed in our times."- Jorge Volpi, El País
