Images of the Divine Bird: Autofiction and Stories - Paperback

by Andrée Conrad (Author), Mercedes Cortázar (Author)

Creating dramatic situations of episodes from her life, her ancestors' history, or her own imagination, Mercedes Cortázar probes the psyche of her charactersand our times with irony, clarity, and surgical precision, as well as poetic depth. Sometimes subtle, allusive, metaphorical, and others blunt, caustic, and unforgiving, she lets the gamut of human emotions play out in original and lapidary prose.
