Trade Paperback. Condition: New. New! // 'Shortlisted for The International Booker Prize 2026 She Who Remains, Rene Karabash's landmark Bulgarian queer novel, secrets readers into a rural Albanian village where, to this day, the Kanun of Lekë Dukagjini--a collection of archaic laws--looms over the lives of villagers with the same haunting presence of the surrounding mountains. Bekija, painfully aware of why she cannot have what she most wants, chooses to become a 'sworn virgin,' setting off a bloody and heartbreaking chain of events that shatters a family and destroys a cherished relationship, but also reveals how trauma can lead to vital, if uncomfortable, truths. Karabash's poetic stream of consciousness traces gender evolution with innovative grace. This bold exploration of what it means to be a woman in a world defined by the violence of ancient patriarchal traditions has resonated with readers across Europe and beyond, and now English-language readers won't soon forget Izidora Angel's award-winning translation.' -- publisher.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Amar tan intensamente al otro que nos perdemos. Como un funambulista, Omar salta al vacío y en el éxtasis de estar flotando en el abismo, en el amor, la obsesión, no sabe a qué distancia están sus pies del suelo. A través de cartas escritas a su amada ideal irá encontrando poco a poco asideros en los que apoyar sus pies y entrar en contacto con la tierra y con su propio ser. La imagen proyectada por el ser amado nos devuelve, al final, la misma ternura, la misma pasión; se revela una conversación íntima e introspectiva que, más allá de dirigirse solo hacia la amada, vuelve con la misma energía para poner luz sobre el propio amante y así desvelar las dos mitades que ya existían dentro de una sola.
