«Maldición eterna a quien lea estas páginas» is the novel by Argentine Manuel Puig, published by Círculo de Lectores in paperback (282 pages, in Spanish).
Manuel Puig sets the action in New York: an Argentine invalid and his North American caregiver clash in a coexistence marked by a lack of affection and by the women absent from their lives. Through dialogues and silences, each confronts the other and himself, and from that tension arise confessions that transform their relationship.
Published in 1990, it belongs to twentieth-century Latin American literature.
A work for readers of contemporary fiction and Latin American literature interested in an intimate story about solitude and affection.
