Seller Description
On a plane, a woman listens to her neighbor on the flight tell her the story of her life: her job, her marriage, and the horrible night she just spent burying the family dog. This woman is Faye, a writer who travels to Europe to promote the book she has just published. Already in her destiny, her conversations with the people she meets reveal to the reader the deepest human concerns about family, love, politics, art, or justice and injustice. The tension between what her interlocutors are and what they say they are increases as the narrative progresses. After A contraluz and Tránsito, Prestigio brilliantly closes a narrative cycle that has been celebrated as one of the most original and exciting works of our time. A brilliant investigation of the limits of narrative conventions with which Rachel Cusk has reinvented the way of writing a novel today.
