Written in retrospect, much of the story recreates the childhood of the narrator of this sort of autobiography, which is set in the family home in the Chilean countryside. The house operates as a condensation of existence and its possibilities, of different types of people and their destinies. The home where the blind girl grows up is a sort of repository for all those family members who have been unable to find their place in the world or have been expelled from it. This particular country house, then, shelters the odd ones out. The only common denominator of this community marked by eccentricity is precisely their oddness; that is, their difference.

Elisa Serrana
Chile. Her name was Elisa Pérez Walker, but she adopted her husband's surname, feminizing it by changing Serrano to Serrana, in a gesture that defined her feminist stance. She used literature to highlight the differences and asymmetries in gender relations. Furthermore, she profoundly and exhaustively analyzed the family as a central generator of conflict and a determinant in human relationships, where women occupied a restricted space, typically defined by marriage and motherhood. She studied pedagogy and, alongside her teaching career, was the director of the children's department of Disney magazine. From a very young age, she published short stories in various magazines, but it was in her novels that she achieved her most important works: Las tres caras de un sello; Chilena, casada, sin profesión; A cuál de ellas quiere usted “mandandirumdirunda”; Una.Related books
