«La piel del zorro» is the novel by Herta Müller, published by Siruela in paperback (248 pages, in Spanish).
The action takes place in a Romanian city during the end of the Ceausescu era and portrays life under surveillance and suspicion. A teacher, a soldier, and the lover of a Securitate agent appear, in settings such as apartments, factories, bars, and hospitals; the fragmentary prose turns the everyday into a reflection of oppression.
Volume 165 of the Nuevos Tiempos collection. The translation is by Juan José del Solar and the German original dates from 1992. Herta Müller received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2009.
