«El lugar sin límites» is the novel by Chilean writer José Donoso, published by Seix Barral in paperback (140 pages, in Spanish).
The action takes place in a rural brothel run by Japonesita, where the sordidness, violence, and misery of a marginal world come to light. There, la Manuela, an ambiguous and fascinating character, serves as a mirror to question established morality and the values of masculinity. José Donoso thus composes an oppressive portrait of social decay and identity.
It belongs to the Biblioteca Breve collection by Seix Barral in its 1979 edition.
For readers of Latin American fiction and twentieth-century classics, particularly those interested in Chilean literature.
José Manuel Donoso Yáñez, was a Chilean writer, journalist and professor. He lived most of his life in Chile, although he spent many years in self-imposed exile in Mexico, the United States and Spain. Although he stated that he had left Chile in the 1960s for personal reasons, after 1973 his exile was also a form of protest against the dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet. He returned to Chile in 1981 and lived there until his death in 1996.
