«Mientras agonizo» is the novel by William Faulkner, published by Editorial Anagrama in hardcover (248 pages, in Spanish).
The novel follows the Bundren family, poor farmers from the American South, who travel to bury the matriarch Addie on her family plot. Narrated through interior monologues, including the voice of the dead woman herself, it combines acid humor and desolation with echoes of the Odyssey and the Bible; it touches on the decline of the South, guilt and the weight of the past.
Fifth novel by William Faulkner, number 447 in the Panorama de narrativas collection, translated by Jesús Zulaika Goicoechea; reproduces the version fixed in 1985.
Aimed at a general audience, especially readers of contemporary fiction and classic American novels.
