¡Esta temblando! Un romance a escondidas. Un departamento en la colonia Roma. Los objetos se desploman, las paredes se agrietan. « ¿Moriremos?» La escala de Richter es alta y la fatalidad, también. Gritos. El pavor crece y se quiebra; de las fisuras manan los recuerdos de ella que, aterrorizada, espera la caída. Como destellos de vida, se dispara el recuento final de una historia hecha de tantas otras. Se desprenden los mosaicos de sus vivencias, amoríos, viajes, infancia feliz... o remendada? Matrimonios, divorcios, una hija sabia, genial y entrafiable . Existen los recuerdos o son visiones desesperadas de un aquí que se derrumba? El pecado de omisión y la culpa taladran la memoria de esta enamoradiza agnóstica, mientras crujen las entrañas de la tierra. El desafio que tiene por delante consistirá en contarlo todo a riesgo de que sólo las piedras y el polvo la escuchen.
En esta íntima y emotiva novela, Beatriz Rivas compone un collage de confesiones, pensamientos, desahogos, manías, banalidades y fantasmas que se entrelazan entre hondos cuestionamientos. Un rompecabezas para los voyeuristas del alma donde se unen placeres y heridas; un caleidoscopio de voces que gira concéntrico y revelador. Lo que no he dicho es una expiación a la velocidad del miedo.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
“What would weigh heavier, a building on top of me or a murder on my conscious?”
The ground is shaking! A secret romance. An apartment in the Roma neighborhood in Mexico City. Things fall all around, walls crack. "We will die?" The Richter scale is high and so are fatalities. Screams. Fear grows and breaks; from the cracks spring all the memories of those who, terrified, await the fall. Like flashes of life, these are the final retellings of a story made of so many other stories. Do the mosaics of their experiences, love affairs, travels, or happy childhood tumble to the ground? Marriages, divorces, a wise, brilliant and endearing daughter. Are these actual memories or are they desperate visions of a collapsing present? Sins of omission and guilt pierce the memory of this agnostic girl in love, while the earth’s guts groan. The challenge ahead will be to tell it all and leave nothing unsaid, even if it means that only the walls and the dust will hear her.
In this intimate and emotional novel, Beatriz Rivas composes a collage of confessions, thoughts, outbursts, obsessions, and ghosts that are interlaced with deep questions. It is a puzzle for voyeurists of the soul where pleasures and anguish come together; a revealing kaleidoscope of voices that turns in circles. What I Have Not Said is an atonement at the speed of fear.
