by Alejandra Moffat (Author)

Ana y Julia viven con sus padres en el sur de Chile. La época turbulenta de la dictadura las obliga a vivir en la clandestinidad y pasan los días jugando en un bosque, usando nombres falsos cuando se topan con extraños. El padre dibuja animales para explicarles el peligro, mientras la madre planea rutas de escape y rompe cartas escondida en el baño. Conforme la realidad los alcanza, los prismas de la infancia se van desvaneciendo.


Acompañados de la entrañable voz de Ana, vamos recorriendo estos claroscuros donde la violencia se oculta con el juego y la fantasía, hasta que los hechos traspasen esas fronteras y su vida cambie para siempre.


Con MAMBO, Alejandra Moffat ha hecho una novela que abre el espacio de lo poético en la oblicuidad de la fantasía y las diversiones simples, que nos hace pensar en maneras de abrazar la fragilidad, al tiempo que intentamos mundos nuevos, que nos da un abrazo de palabras y, por momentos, nos disipa la incertidumbre . Yol Segura


Esta hermosa novela enfrenta la inocencia de una niña con lo siniestro de una dictadura y logra la iluminación de narrar verdaderamente desde la infancia. Alejandra Moffat es una maestra de la ternura . Elvira Liceaga


ENGLISH DESCRIPTION


Ana and Julia live with their parents in southern Chile. The turbulent times of the dictatorship force them to live in hiding, in a very personal universe where they surround themselves with elves, dwarves, false names and the magic and care of adults. Their father drew everything that came to mind, from a man with bird claws to a rabbit with a mane or ants in swimsuits; their mother made maps and tore up letters hidden in the bathroom. As reality catches up with them, their childhood cousins fade away.


Through Ana's endearing voice, we journey through these chiaroscuros where bullets and violence are confused with games and fantasy until events cross those boundaries and her life changes forever.
