«Kilos» is the novel by Valérie Tong Cuong, published by Ediciones B in paperback (286 pages, in Spanish).
Marianne weighs one hundred and twenty kilos and her body has confined her to a routine. When she meets Georges, a homeless man also marginalized, both establish a relationship in which they seek to be seen differently. The novel speaks of the difficulty of achieving simple happiness when the physical seems to deny it, with loneliness, paranoia, and a desire for acceptance.
The translation is by Ana María Moix and Concha Serra Ramoneda. The original work, titled Big, was published in 1997. The Spanish edition belongs to the Tiempos Modernos collection from Ediciones B.
For readers of contemporary fiction who value stories about loneliness, marginalization, and the search for personal acceptance.
