«Pudor» is a fiction novel by Peruvian writer Santiago Roncagliolo, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardcover (173 pages, in Spanish).
The story delves into the intimacy of a family with hidden desires and fears: a man who is going to die, a woman who receives pornographic anonymous letters, a child who witnesses harsh scenes, and a cat driven by instinct. Between the sordid and the comic, it portrays shared solitude and the secrets with which they protect themselves from others.
The edition with illustrated dust jacket appeared in 2005; the novel belongs to twenty-first-century Hispanic American literature.
A work for readers of contemporary fiction interested in a bittersweet look at family life.
