«Las amantes» is the novel by Elfriede Jelinek, published by El Aleph Editores in paperback, with 194 pages, in Spanish.
Brigitte and Paula marry after becoming pregnant, and the novel explores whether they do so out of ambition or love and what concept they have of love. With irony and sarcasm, Jelinek parodies the romance novel to denounce the condition of women in the West and the destinies imposed on them.
Published in 2004, translated by Susana Cañuelo Sarrion and Jordi Jané Lligue. Part of the Modernos y Clásicos collection, number 208.
For readers of contemporary and literary fiction seeking an author with a critical and provocative perspective.
Elfriede Jelinek is an Austrian playwright and novelist. She is one of the most decorated authors to write in German and was awarded the 2004 Nobel Prize in Literature for her "musical flow of voices and counter-voices in novels and plays that, with extraordinary linguistic zeal, reveal the absurdity of society's clichés and their subjugating power". She is considered to be among the most important living playwrights of the German language.
