«La acompañante: El lacayo y la puta» is a volume of two narratives by Nina Berberova, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardcover (186 pages, in Spanish).
The two narratives gathered here are independent, but share a perspective on hopelessness and the role of chance in the characters' lives. Berberova focuses on beings marked by solitude and internal conflicts, described with a subtlety that makes the environment in which they move visible.
Published in 1990; the volume includes two narratives: «La acompañante» and «El lacayo y la puta».
For readers interested in psychological stories about solitude and fate.
Nina Nikolayevna Berberova was a Russian writer who chronicled the lives of anti-communist Russian refugees in Paris in her short stories and novels. She visited post-Soviet Russia. Her 1965 revision of the Constance Garnett translation of Leo Tolstoy's Anna Karenina with Leonard J. Kent was considered by the academic Zoja Pavlovskis-Petit to be the best translation before 2000.
