Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set in the late 1840s in a remote Colombian village, the narrative explores the brutal punishment of a young enslaved woman named Magdalena, subjected to horrific torture by her master. The story delves into the complexities of her suffering, the indifference of witnesses, and the haunting uncertainties surrounding her experience. It grapples with the challenge of recounting such trauma, reflecting on the limitations of historical narratives and the struggle to give voice to those silenced by oppression, as articulated by theorist Saidiya Hartman.
