En 'Lauras Schweigen', Paula Fox nos presenta una historia intensa y observada con precisión. En la víspera de un viaje a África, Laura Maldonada Clapper y su esposo, Desmond, se encuentran en un hotel de Nueva York, esperando a sus invitados. Lo que comienza como una fiesta de despedida pronto se convierte en un amargo y claustrofóbico choque familiar. Laura, ocultando la noticia de la muerte de su madre, preside sobre los incesantes indirectas y la hostilidad con una crueldad imperial. Esta novela es un tour de force de la incomparable Paula Fox, explorando las complejidades de las relaciones familiares y los secretos que las corroen.
Paula Fox was an American author of novels for adults and children and of two memoirs. Fox won the Newbery Medal in 1974 for her novel The Slave Dancer. She also won the Hans Christian Andersen Award in 1978 and won a 1983 National Book Award in category Children's Fiction (paperback) for A Place Apart.
