Un ojo con un pero. Un oído en alta mar. Las palabras se le hacen ajenas a una mujer con una enfermedad ocular grave cuando trata de hilvanar el relato de su cuerpo frágil. Ese cuerpo amenazado despierta el recuerdo de la madre muerta y de los años desperdiciados junto a un amante inconsistente. Por qué narrarse. Cómo no temblar. Pero a pesar del vértigo por el desamparo y la soledad, sobrevive la esperanza de una vida futura… Este libro es un mosaico narrativo tramado con un estilo breve y con el lirismo áspero característico de la autora. En esta segunda novela, Aurora Freijo Corbeira vuelve a convertir en poético lo insoportable: la devastación vivida e imaginada, pensada y escrita. Cuerpo vítreo es un ejercicio insólito de observación de lo personal y lo insondable, una obra sobre el dolor y la lucidez que al mismo tiempo nos recuerda que se puede resistir un poco más. Al menos un soplo más.
Words become foreign to a woman with a serious eye disease as she tries to piece together the story of her frail body. That threatened body awakens the memory of her dead mother and the wasted years with an inconsistent lover. Why narrate? How not to tremble But despite the vertigo due to helplessness and loneliness, the hope of a future life survives. This book is a narrative mosaic plotted with a brief style and with the author's characteristic harsh lyricism. In this second novel, Aurora Freijo Corbeira once again makes the unbearable poetic: the devastation lived and imagined, thought and written. Vitreous Body is an unusual exercise in observing the personal and the unfathomable, a work about pain and lucidity that at the same time reminds us that we can resist a little longer. At least one more breath.
