Overview
«—Vicky, ven, acércate, te voy a decir un secreto: el infierno no existe, son los papás —le susurró al oído y se partió de risa.»
Alejandra, una adolescente frívola, vive en un fraccionamiento de clase alta. Su vida se ve afectada por el abandono de su madre y la dureza de un padre estricto. Es muy cercana a Vicky, su nana, quien para ella es parte de la familia, y que padece de epilepsia, por lo que casi no sale de los límites de la casa. Una tarde sus vidas cambian por completo cuando Juan Pablo, el lavacoches, intenta violar a Vicky.
¿Cómo nos afectan las decisiones una vez que las tomamos? ¿Cuáles son las consecuencias cuando ya no hay marcha atrás? No matarás es una historia desgarradora que constriñe las vísceras y sacude el alma.
«La novela de Ana Sofía González explora como pocas la culpa, la locura, la devastación provocada por un crimen que, aun en defensa propia, arrastra a las protagonistas a los abismos más oscuros. Una reflexión profunda sobre las consecuencias emocionales de nuestros actos.» -Guillermo Arriaga
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
“Vicky, come, come closer. I am going to tell you a secret: there is no hell, it’s parents,” she whispered in her ear and cracked up laughing.
Alejandra, a frivolous teenager, lives in an upper-class development. Her life is affected by her mother leaving and the harshness and strictness of her father. She is close to Vicky, her nanny, whom she considers part of the family. Vicky has epilepsy, reason for which she rarely leaves the confines of the house. One afternoon, their lives change entirely when Juan Pablo, the car washer, tries to rape Vicky.
What is the impact of our choices once we make them? What are the consequences when there is no turning back? You Shall Not Kill is a heart-breaking, gut-wrenching story that rattles the soul.
“Ana Sofía González’s novel explores, like few others, the guilt, madness, and devastation triggered by a crime that, even if committed in self-defense, drags the protagonists to the darkest depths. A profound reflection on the emotional consequences of our actions.” —Guillermo Arriaga
