Overview

EL ESPERADO REGRESO DE UNA DE LAS MEJORES AUTORAS DEL MOMENTO

Una novela sobre la animalidad del deseo y el miedo a nombrar

«Infalible y con un devenir arrasador, El celo contiene algunos de los pasajes más bellos de la autora. [...] Este libro esperadísimo es digno de celebración». -Elisa Victoria

«Urraca cuenta nuestras historias: las de todas las perras rabiosas». -María Fernanda Ampuero

La noche en que encontró a la Perra, la Humana estaba drogada. Por eso dejó que la siguiera a casa. Ahora convive con un animal que se va llenando de toda la energía que a ella le falta, y al que de pronto le viene un celo incontrolable. La Humana tiene treintaidós años, pero ya no desea. Está en la vida, pero no la ejerce. Llegó a la ciudad hace poco, huyendo de sus días en el campo con un novio que tenía. Sufre extraños síntomas, temblores, moratones que aparecen solos. Un día se agacha a atarse los cordones de los zapatos y descubre que no puede. La Humana teme una maldición que avanza. Para que el psiquiatra acceda a recetarle más ansiolíticos tendrá que asistir a una terapia de grupo. Allí conocerá a Mecha, una mujer fascinante que se convierte, junto con la Perra, en un animal difícil de salvar.
 
El celo es una historia sobre domesticación, maldiciones, la animalidad del deseo, el miedo como herencia y el poder de los cuentos. Poltergeists, perros enloquecidos y una historia familiar que se construye a mordiscos y silencios.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

THE ANTICIPATED RETURN OF ONE OF TODAY’S MOST POPULAR AUTHORS

A novel about the animality of desire and the fear of naming

The night she met the Dog, the Human was on drugs. That’s why she let her follow her home.  Now she shares her home with an animal that saps her of her energy and is uncontrollably jealous. The Human is just thirty-two years old, but she no longer has desires. She inhabits her life but doesn’t live it. She is new to the city, having fled her rural home to escape an old boyfriend. She suffers strange symptoms: tremors, unexplained bruises. One day, she bends down to tie her shoelaces and discovers she can’t do it. The Human is afraid that a great evil is coming. Her psychiatrist won’t prescribe her more anxiety medication unless she goes to group therapy. There she meets Mecha, a fascinating woman who, like the Dog, turns out not to be as easy to rescue as she first thought.
 
Jealousy is a novel about curses, domestication, the animality of desire, inherited fears and the power of stories. Poltergeists, mad dogs and a family history built on fragments and silences.
